More About Ohnut

How does Ohnut work?

+

Worn externally by a penetrating partner at the base of the shaft (or object of choice), start by linking 3 stackable rings. Lube up. Slide Ohnut down. During penetration Ohnut will compress down to act like a buffer. Remove or add rings as you choose. Explore! Need to know more? Click here. 

What is Ohnut made of?

+

Ohnut is currently made of a skin-safe polymer blend. It’s a thermo-set material that is BPA, phthalate, and latex free.

How does it feel physically for the penetrating partner?

+

While Ohnut can be used by penetrating partners of any gender, feedback from those with penises includes not noticing the difference and feeling like full penetration, while also enjoying its additional use for foreplay. Some may feel a slight “hug” sensation. The majority report that sex is more satisfying because they're not as worried about causing their partner pain and their partner isn’t as worried about being in pain. This generally results in a feeling of confidence, of letting go with one another, of enjoyment. Don't just take it from us, though — click here to hear what one male user had to say or check out our reviews!

Does Ohnut come in different sizes?

+

Ohnut now comes in one size, formerly known as Wider.

Ohnut is made with a soft material that stretches significantly for comfort, and is unlikely to be too wide for effective use.

Penetrating partner preference and size of origin may vary widely. So! If Ohnut feels too tight, store the rings wrapped around a water bottle that is 3” in diameter (also serves as a great drink koozie) for a couple of hours. This will temporarily stretch out the rings. Let us know how this works for you.

Does Ohnut go inside the vagina?

+

A common misconception! But no, Ohnut is actually worn by the penetrating partner at the base of the penis shaft or insertable object of choice. During penetration, Ohnut compresses down to act like a buffer, modifying the depth. Ohnut is not designed to ever go inside the vagina. 

Will Ohnut fix the pain I have during penetrative sex?

+

If you feel discomfort at any time — speak up to your partner, take a break, and listen to your body. Ohnut is not a medical device and does not prevent or cure any conditions — so it’s a good idea to consult with your clinician. You may also consider visiting a pelvic floor physical therapist or a pelvic floor occupational therapist.

I have vaginismus, will Ohnut help me?

+

While Ohnut is designed primarily for people who experience pain from deep penetration, we have heard some positive feedback from people who have entry pain. This may be due to the body relaxing when there is greater communication between partners or a change in head space. However, if you cannot tolerate any penetration at all, Ohnut may not be helpful to you. Check out our reviews to see what others have to say.

I recently had a gender-affirming vaginoplasty. Can Ohnut help make sex more comfortable?

+

First of all, congratulations!! And yes, Ohnut can accompany pelvic floor physical therapy and/or dilator therapy post-op. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Using Ohnut

Can I use Ohnut with a condom?

+

Yes! You’ll just need to put the condom on prior to putting on your Ohnut. Be sure to use additional lubrication before sliding Ohnut on.

Can I use Ohnut for anal sex?

+

Yes, absolutely! Ohnut helps partners explore comfortable depths of penetration be that vaginal, anal, or oral. 

What kinds of lubrication can I use with Ohnut?

+

Lubrication is essential to the Ohnut experience (do not attempt use without it!).  Since Ohnut is made from an FDA-approved family of polymers, it is compatible with both silicone based and water based lubrication. If using silicone lubricant, thoroughly wash your Ohnut directly after use.

Oil based lubes are not recommended, including coconut oil, as they can degrade the material and cause your rings to tear. 

Can I use coconut oil with Ohnut?

+

Coconut oil (or any oil-based lubricant) should not be used with Ohnut, as it can degrade the material and cause your rings to tear. We cannot replace damaged rings that have been used with oil-based lubricants. Water- and silicone-based lubricants are great, though!

Can I use CBD or cannabis lubes with Ohnut?

+

CBD or cannabis lubes can be used with Ohnut as long as they are water- or silicone-based. Ohnut should not be used with any oil-based lubricant, as oil can degrade the material and cause your rings to tear. We cannot replace damaged rings that have been used with oil-based lubricants. 

Can Ohnut be used with multiple partners?

+

As a precautionary measure we recommend that Ohnut is not shared between different partners. Technically, Ohnut's material can be porous under a significant amount of pressure but that is more pressure than the amount applied during partner use. While there is currently no evidence that Ohnut harbors bacteria or can transmit STIs between partners, we want you to be as safe as possible. 

How do I properly care for my Ohnut?

+

Make sure to store your Ohnut linked together in its bag between uses. Hand wash your Ohnut with mild soap and water after use and allow to air dry. Do not boil or place your Ohnut in the dishwasher.

Can I sterilize Ohnut?

+

Do not boil or put your Ohnut in the dishwasher. Ohnut is effectively cleaned with through hand washing with mild soap and warm water after use. Allow to air dry and store with rings linked together in the bag provided. 

What if Ohnut doesn’t work for me/us?

+

Since every body is unique, using Ohnut will not be the same for everyone. Depending on stress level, time of month, and other extenuating factors—our bodies are literally different every time we have sex. Customers have sent a ton of positive feedback, but even for those couples who love it, sometimes it doesn't work as desired. After all, we're only human. Good days and bad days are normal. 

There are still all kinds of different things you can do with your Ohnut. Some folks have really enjoyed using Ohnut as a couples "stroker" or for oral sex or... (this is a new one!) one customer recently said her partner used two rings as a "ball stretcher."
