Question VED pump users
Curious if anyone has gotten these to work for actual sex? I bought the vacurect recently and it seems to work great for rehab but not sure how it would work for sex. Everything pumps up great but as soon as you handle "it" a bit, it loses the pump. Scared to try too small of a ring. Didn't see much guidance how to get the ring off. When I tried a smaller ring the skin bunched up trying to pull it off, made me panic a little. So, if anyone has good VED stories curious what brand. For what its worth i'm 56yrs old 7 weeks post ralp.

I’m a year out from ralp, 51 years old. Had non-nerve sparing so no chance of natural erections. Been using the Vacurect and it def took some time to figure out the best method. I was scared to death to use the smaller rings but finally worked down the line and found that number 7 is my go to. It takes a good bit of work to get off. Use more lube and take your time but that one will hold up pretty well.
