Are you a beginner to sex toys and concerned about the safety of masturbating with sex toys? Well, sex toys, especially the porous types are said to be unsafe, but not necessarily. If your toy is porous, you can play safe by maintaining high hygiene standards. Materials like rubber, cyberskin, and jelly are possibly porous and require thorough cleaning before storage to reduce bacterial or viral transmission. Always ensure to wash your sex toy with a special toy cleaner or dip in boiling water to kill any infections. Again, if you are sharing a toy, I recommend using a condom to prevent transmission of sexually transmitted infections, yeast, and urinary tract infections.
Additional tips
- Buy sex toys with materials that give ease in cleaning to reduce labor and cleaning time. Avoid ones that could degrade after washing with some soaps.
- Store your toy in its casing and place it in a cool dry area without contaminants.
- Avoid silicone lubricants for silicone toys because they possibly damage the surface, making them unsafe.
- General rule: no matter the material used, always clean your toy after every use.
