Prince albert stretching is a popular technique used to increase the diameter, also known as the gauge, of your PA piercing. It is a pretty simple process that just takes a little time and a lot of patience. To get started, you will need to know what gauge your prince albert was pierced at. Most PA's have an original gauge of 10 to 12. Before stretching your prince albert, it is also a good idea to wait 4 to 6 months after getting your piercing to allow time for the inside tissues of your penis to heal.

How big of gauge do you want your prince albert to be? Some men opt for a 0 gauge, others may opt for something smaller in diameter like a 2 or 4 gauge. Your piercing may have even already stretched a gauge or so due to the weight of your current penis jewelry.

It's time to get the body jewelry. You can stretch your prince albert using a standard curved barbell or circular barbell. When stretching a piercing I have always bought all my jewelry upfront so I don't have to keep running back and forth to the body jewelry store. If you have a 10 gauge prince albert, you will start the stretching process with an 8 gauge. If you have a 12 gauge, you would start with a 10 gauge.

Now that you have the jewelry ready, simply slide the larger body jewelry gauge into your piercing. There will be some discomfort, but you should not be in agony. Leave the jewelry piece in the piercing for approximately 6 to 12 weeks, allowing the piercing to again heal with the larger diameter. Once healed, you can work your way up to the next gauge, 10 to 8, 8 to 6 and so forth. Always allow significant time before working to the next gauge or you could create a lot of scar tissue and have trouble stretching it any further. Your piercing should never bleed while you are going through the prince albert stretching process, if it does, you are stretching it way too fast.

Once you work your way up to your desired gauge, the guys and girls will come running to see your newly stretched prince albert piercing. Next, get the opinions of several guys on whether a PA piercing hurts or not.
