1. Where does the name come from and historical background of Dydoe Piercing
The Dydoe piercing is a unique and special piercing that is not only chosen for aesthetic reasons but also has a deeper meaning and history. In this blog post, we will cover all the aspects you should know about the Dydoe piercing.
The dydoe piercing has its roots in the mid-20th century and was created by Doug Malloy, a pioneer in the modern piercing scene. It was originally used on circumcised men, particularly in the Jewish community, to increase the sensitivity of the glans. The piercing penetrates the edge of the glans and can help to increase sexual sensation, especially in circumcised men.
2. Where and how exactly is it pierced?
Dydoe piercings should only be performed by experienced and qualified piercing professionals in hygienically impeccable studios. This piercing is placed on the edge of the glans and requires precision and an understanding of the individual anatomy. A careful preliminary discussion and possibly anesthesia of the glans may be part of the preparation. Choose your studio carefully, as quality and hygiene are particularly important here.
3. Costs of Dydoe Piercing
The cost of a Dydoe piercing can vary depending on the studio, region and chosen jewelry. It is advisable not to cut corners and to give priority to the quality and experience of the piercer. The price including matching initial jewelry starts at around €85.
4. Pain of Dydoe Piercing
The perception of pain varies greatly from individual to individual. Since the glans has a high density of nerve endings, the stinging can be felt as intense. However, many report that the pain subsides quickly.
5. Risks of Dydoe Piercing
As with any piercing, there are risks associated with Dydoe piercings such as infections, rejection reactions or scarring. Careful aftercare is essential to minimize these risks.

In general, the Dydoe piercing is not intended for stretching, as it goes directly through the sensitive edge of the glans. Adjusting the size should only be done under professional advice from the piercing studio.

11. Dydoe Intimate Jewelry
The Dydoe piercing is unique in its kind and therefore requires high-quality, skin-friendly jewelry that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also safe and comfortable for the wearer.
Material selection
Titanium: High-quality titanium is an excellent choice due to its bio compatibility and light weight. It is particularly suitable for initial jewelry as it minimizes allergic reactions and does not contain any nickel components.
Surgical steel: Also known as medical stainless steel, this is a common choice for piercing jewelry. Make sure the steel is of high quality and ideally nickel-free to avoid skin irritation. Our products are all made of particularly high-quality 316L surgical stainless steel and are therefore particularly suitable as intimate jewelry.
Bioflex or PTFE: These plastic materials are flexible and can reduce the risk of injury and irritation. They are particularly suitable for people with sensitive skin or nickel allergies.
Dydoe Barbells & Bananabells
The dydoe piercing is usually decorated with a curved barbell, also called a banana bell. This type of jewelry adapts to the natural shape of the glans and ensures a comfortable fit:
Curved barbell (banana piercing): The curved barbell is ideal because it adapts to the curve of the glans. It should have a diameter of at least 1.6 millimeters to avoid pressure points and the risk of outgrowth. The length of the barbell should fit exactly to allow movement without causing excessive friction.
Ball Sizes and Materials: The end balls of the barbell should be large enough to prevent slippage, but not so large that they cause pressure or discomfort. They can be made of the same material as the barbell or a complementary material such as gemstones or colored glass for a customized look.
Changing and adjusting piercing jewelry
Changing jewelry: During the healing phase, you should not change the initial jewelry. However, after healing, it is possible to replace the jewelry to choose between different styles and to realize your own ideas. It is crucial that the new jewelry is sterilized and has the right size and shape.
Adjustment to individual needs: Every body is different, and what works for one may be problematic for another. It may be necessary to adjust the size, shape or material of the jewelry to achieve the best comfort and function.
Choosing the right piercing jewelry is essential for the health, comfort and satisfaction of your Dydoe piercing. Careful selection and care of your jewelry will go a long way toward minimizing the risk of complications and improving the piercing experience.
