Sexual limitations: Two weeks abstinence and considerable care afterward until healed. A condom should be worn until it is completely healed.

Lastly, after his apadravya completely HEALED, I attempted oral sex. At first glance, I kept looking at his penis and repetitively asked, "Are you sure you're okay for me to do this ? Is your piercing completely healed ?" He said he was fine. I proceeded with his wish and found that he was in heaven. "What does it feel like?" I asked smiling. He said it felt really damn good and to continue. LOL All in all, I took it slow. From an honest perspective, the barbell takes awhile of getting used to when sucking up and down. It's a delicate moment, really. As the months go by, the sucking gets even better. LOL

 

Cat's experience :

The apadravya piercing is very stimulating for your lover's pleasure.

Beware, males need to be careful when experimenting with various sexual moves.

My husband got an apadravya. He was all for it. He seemed excited and willing to do this for his own enjoyment / decoration and for my / our sexual delight.

The Apadravya is similar to the Ampallang, except that instead of a horizontal piercing through the penis glans (head) it is a vertical piercing.
Male Genital Piercings
It has been mentioned in the Kama Sutra as an erotic piercing for both visual and physical arousal.
Placement of the needle is also critical with this piercing or it could result in severe bleeding. If not treated immediately, it could result in death. Less severe possible complications are migration and/or rejection of the jewelry.
This piercing can be a slow and painful procedure due to the fibrous nature of the glans. The piercing can be placed through or around the urethra. The most important thing is to be sure that the corpus cavernosum is not damaged. (An experienced piercer will know this.)
DAY ONE = As I was downstairs looking at the body jewelry to replace an old belly ring of mine, my husband was upstairs in the piercer's so -called doctor's room. The only words I heard from his mouth were "FUUUCCCCCKKKKK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" It was actually funny. Everyone present just laughed. Knew he didn't chicken out. Later, the piercer explained that a lot of guys will come in piss drunk and say "I want my penis pierced." In the end, when he's got his pants down and sees what is about to be done, he freaks out, doesn't go through with the procedure. Apparently, the one tattoo / piercing place we visited in Towson, Maryland claimed that few individuals dared to get their penis pierced. The piercer himself had an apadravya. He's like, "Ooohhh yeah, your woman will love it. My girlfriend enjoys it." Shit, he wasn't lying either !!!!!!!!!! LOL
The only downfall, amusingly my husband was told not to have sex until it healed. The piercer claimed sex was not possible - to wait. In addition to getting a hard on.
Well, my husband is one horny bastard. Despite his on-going sexual urges, he amazingly GO IT UP. We even proceeded to enter a new sexual dimension on the second day. However, be careful if YOU attempt this maneuver. It won't last long. His penis is still sore from the piercing itself. Your best bet is to perform oral sex / foreplay until the darn thing heals! Trust me, it's worth the wait. His penis may look bruised, but in due time - - you'll be screaming "OOOoooo God !!!!!" like there's no tomorrow. LOL
First off, I must say - - when I first felt him inside of me, it hurt like hell. Felt like I was at the gynecologist. You boys who plan to get one - - be courteous to your loved one. My husband and I found that if he inserted his penis at an angle instead of shoving HIS penis straight into my love hole, it saves pain. Moreover, once his piercing healed, I adjusted and was use to the feel of the barbell.
For all you ladies out there who are iffy about this type of piercing, it's actually worth it. My husband and I had on-going multiple orgasms. And they were fucking incredible !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Example, for those of you lovely females who used to reach a wonderful climax but somehow through out the years cannot master an orgasm while your man is happily on top - - the apadravya piercing does wonders to fix this slight problem. Let's just say I was smiling and wanting seconds. LOL
Everyone likes to experiment with numerous sex positions. If my husband fucked me from behind, doggie style, I realized I had multiple orgasms like crazy !!!!!!!!!!!!! However, on one occasion, we were making out. We wanted to try every position we could think of to see what the apadravya piercing felt like. From what I recall, we were on the bed. He was at his knees as he cradled me and immediately chose to lift me up while standing on the bed. We were at it for a specific amount of time. The sensation was one we had never felt before. I was having a damn good orgasm!!!!!!!!! My husband could feel me getting incredibly wet. The funny thing was - - when he glanced down to check out the scenery, his penis going in and out of me - - he discovered that I was covered in blood. It was PURE RED. Instantly, I had assumed I was on my period, that time of the month. He's like, "Ooohh my God! Are you okay ?" By the time he put me down, I was still in an orgasmic state. It's like I wanted to keep going. LOL At the same time, I was shocked that blood was just GUSHING out of me. Right then and there, I knew I wasn't on the rag. My thighs and love area was just covered in blood. He wanted to take me to the hospital, but I told him, "I think I'll be fine. The barbell must have rubbed against me at a wrong angle." It took approximately one month for my inner wall to heal. Regardless if we attempted sex without the earring, I was still a bit sore. But I recovered. From then on, we were careful as to how the piercing was positioned. Overall, my husband loved his new piercing. Down the road, the sex got even better. The best part was, he did it all for me.
