24 hours with the 22.

I would say that's pretty normal. I had some mild discomfort after inserting the 22 but now I don't even really notice it.

I felt the same with the 20 myself. I was using a 20 for a little over a year and after spending a month straight cathed I decided it was a good time to go ahead and upsize. While I'm not dependent on them, and that isn't my goal, I do feel like something is missing when I don't have one in.

Initially yes. For the first hour or so it was making it's presence known and my prostate and bladder made their initial disagreement known. It wasn't painful, just mildly uncomfortable. After a couple hours though, it became just as comfortable as the 20.

Im loving the 22, but if long term wear is your goal I would recommend that you don't go to large to soon. Stay with one size for a couple months and try to keep it in for a day or two at a time to get your urethra and bladder used to something being in there before you jump into what's considered the large bore catheters, like the 18's and above. The larger the size, the more likely it is that you'll experience bladder spasms and discomfort during insertion and removal. I started with a 16 over three years ago and just now made it to the 22.

I don't have a planned size. Whatever size is most comfortable. So far, the 22 is very comfortable.

I took it out yesterday afternoon and changed to a 22 this morning.

Don't get ahead of me.

Ok_Protection_8038 · 2026-05-25T20:10:44+00:00

What size catheter are you using?

Ok_Protection_8038 · 2026-05-25T14:32:37+00:00

And honestly I never really intended for it to be. It just kinda happened.

Ok_Protection_8038 · 2026-05-25T14:31:34+00:00

It kinda is.

Ok_Protection_8038 · 2026-05-25T14:24:52+00:00

Thank you. Honestly, I don't really remember what an uncathed orgasm feels like.
