| Methods Men who wish to stimulate the prostate should insert a butt plug and then gently angle it toward the navel before rubbing back and forth. There are also some butt plugs specifically shaped for prostate stimulation. Recent research indicates that massage of the prostate may actually help decrease the risk of prostate cancer. Wax candles can sometimes make inexpensive substitutes for butt plugs. One should make sure that the candles do not contain lead. Like any object inserted in the anus, the candle should not be inserted more than eight inches or beyond one's comfort level - to do so can cause tears to the sigmoid colon. Candles are also more rigid, and therefore when using a candle one should exercise special care to avoid injury. It is also important to remember not to completely insert the candle, since unlike butt plugs, candles do not have flared bases. Small hard boiled eggs (without shells) can usually be safely inserted in the rectum and defecated as feces. Hard boiling an egg can raise its internal temperature to a dangerous level, so the egg should be cooled before use. Placing the egg in a refrigerator will generally cool the egg down quickly and to an acceptable temperature. Since 1 to 1½ inches (3 to 4 cm) is generally the largest diameter that is safe and comfortable for the general population, the eggs found in supermarket dairy cases may be too large. Seek "medium" or "small" sized eggs if possible. Remember to lubricate the eggs and the anal area before insertion. Again, it is important to exercise common sense and not to insert objects larger than one's comfort level. Stories (or urban legends) have sometimes circulated regarding the
insertion of gerbils or light bulbs (see rectal foreign body for more
information). The insertion of these objects is not safe. Besides being
too large in diameter and virtually impossible to retrieve if completely
inserted, a light bulb could have medically catastrophic consequences
if it were to shatter while inside the rectum.
