Hey again. This question just hit me, will I be able to slip an externally treaded barbell in a DIY piercing?! I’m having my Master pierce my VCH in a few weeks, and all I have for jewelry has external threading. Nothing internal. So my initial jewelry must be ex.threaded. I had a 14g 3/8 ss straight bb (ex. Threaded) with a (bottom) 4mm ball, and a small slave bead with a 3mm ball (top) autoclaved at a shop, and set aside in a surgical package. Will it work!!?? I can’t aford anymore jewelry, I’m saving my $ to buy clamps, and EMLA for when he does my vert.nips (Oh! And I need to know if 14g 7/16 curved bb, ex.threaded, will go through my nips as initial jewelry) Please help me!

Quick snappy comeback answer is……NOPE

How are we possibly able to tell what your VCH or Nipples require without a in person consultation?

Your master could slam a 9″ Nail through both things and hey it’d work, but the question is: “Was that the RIGHT way to do/use things?”

External threading will irritate/tear the fistula when inserting (unless you use a IV Catheter Needle) not to mention when removing the jewelry.

Internally Threaded Jewelry is the BEST, and in my professional mind/eyes, the ONLY option for what you’re looking to do (both for the VCH and the nipples)…

But as for gauge size and length that’s something you need to consult a piercer on, in person. Ideally someone who knows what they’re doing and will ethically be able to properly analyze the tissue area and offer a variance of gauge/length sizes…Not just go with the simplistic “Lets just do it at 14ga because that’s all we buy” mindset….As quite often certain body types really require larger gauge/length sizes,etc.
