What Are Kegel Balls? 

Kegel balls, also known as Ben Wa balls or vaginal weights, are small, weighted spheres inserted into the vagina to enhance pelvic floor exercises. These devices come in various materials like silicone or metal and may be single or double balls attached by a string. 

The idea behind using Kegel balls is simple: your pelvic floor muscles contract naturally to hold the balls in place. This resistance training strengthens those muscles over time. Originally rooted in ancient Eastern medicine, these tools have made their way into modern health routines due to their many benefits for vaginal health and sexual wellness.

You can find expertly crafted, body-safe Kegel tools within our sex toy collection, many of which are tailored for beginners and pros alike.

How Do Kegel Balls Work? 

Your pelvic floor muscles act like a sling, supporting your bladder, uterus, and bowel. Weakness in these muscles can lead to issues like incontinence or reduced sexual satisfaction. 

When Kegel balls are inserted, they activate these muscles to stay in place. As you move—walking, sitting, or doing daily chores—your body naturally works to hold them up. Over time, this strengthens your pelvic floor, much like lifting weights tones your arms. 

Plus, they stimulate vaginal tissue and increase blood flow, which can enhance arousal and pleasure during intimacy. For this reason, many users report a noticeable improvement in both sexual health and sensitivity. 

Many women find that using a small amount of water-based lubricant enhances comfort and ease of insertion, especially for first-time users.

Benefits of Using Kegel Balls 

Kegel balls offer a wide range of health and wellness benefits. Here are some of the top reasons to use them: 

• Stronger pelvic floor: Ideal for preventing and treating issues like prolapse and incontinence. 

• Improved sexual satisfaction: Enhanced muscle tone can lead to better orgasms. 

• Faster postpartum recovery: Helps restore vaginal tightness and control after childbirth. 

• Increased vaginal lubrication: Boosts blood flow and arousal. 

• Better bladder control: Reduces leaks and urgency, especially with age. 

For postpartum mothers, pairing Kegel training with EjaGuard's natural repair creams may accelerate vaginal recovery and comfort.

Many users also find that using Kegel balls boosts confidence—both in and out of the bedroom. 

How to Use Kegel Balls 

New to Kegel balls? Here’s a step-by-step guide to get you started safely and comfortably: 

1. Choose the right size and weight: Beginners should start with larger, lighter balls. 

2. Clean thoroughly: Wash with warm water and gentle soap before use. 

3. Apply lubricant: Use a water-based lube to ease insertion. 

4. Insert gently: Lie down or squat and slowly push the balls into your vagina. 

5. Contract and hold: Squeeze your pelvic floor muscles to keep them in. 

6. Wear for 10-15 minutes: Gradually increase usage as you get stronger. 

7. Remove and clean: Pull the retrieval string gently and wash after each use. 

Using a gentle, water-based lubricant not only eases insertion but also minimizes the risk of irritation, especially for sensitive users.

You can do light housework, take a walk, or even do yoga while wearing them. Avoid wearing them for extended periods until you're more experienced.

Kegel Balls vs. Traditional Kegel Exercises 

Wondering if Kegel balls are better than traditional exercises? 

Here’s a quick comparison: 

• Kegel balls: Provide resistance, making your muscles work harder. 

• Traditional Kegels: Require no tools, easy to do anytime. 

Kegel balls are great for people who need that extra challenge or want to level up their routine. However, combining both methods often yields the best results.
