Intimate jewelry

Intimate jewelry refers to jewelry or piercings worn in the genital area, on the nipples, or other intimate parts of the body. It can be worn for aesthetic, erotic, or identity-related reasons and is possible for men, women, and non-binary people alike. Depending on the design, it may be temporary jewelry or permanent body jewelry.

With intimate piercings, hygiene, professional placement, and careful aftercare are especially important, as the risk of infection and injury can be higher. The jewelry should not fit too tightly, and sexual or athletic activities should only resume once healing is sufficiently advanced. If pain, inflammation, or unusual changes occur, medical advice should be sought.
