We live in a world and society that has become pretty much accustomed with piercing and tattooing and yet it seems that clitoral piercing is not as popular as we would think. But what is clitorial piercing? Clitorial piercing is a special type of piercing that goes through the clitoris itself and which is wrongfully mistaken as a clitoral hood piercing that is a piercing going through the clitoral hood. Clitorial piercing can be performed horizontally or vertically. Surprisingly or not, although piercings have constantly increased in popularity piercing this part of the body seems to remain the most uncommon type of piercing.

Women who dare getting a clitorial piercing do it because it may enhance sexual stimulation and because they may like the way it looks. However, medically speaking, these piercings are not entirely recommended because if it is misplaced it could damage the clitoris and cause pain. Moreover, the clitoris must be large enough to accommodate and support the jewelry. Because most women do not have a large enough clitoris, they should and perhaps do not even get this type of piercing, but a clitoral hood one. The most common types of piercings used on this part of the body are the barbell and the captive bead ring. As mentioned above, clitoral piercing can be done both vertically and horizontally but the first option is only recommendable for a hooded clitoris. Most commonly, women get 16-14 gauge jewelry when piercing this area of the body. It is estimated that the healing time could take up to 6 weeks although it mostly depends from person to person.

To conclude, clitorial piercing may be tempting for many women but one should first check whether the anatomy of their clitoris is suitable for this type of piercing. Clitoral hood piercing is considered to be safer and easier for women who are normally not eligible for a clitorial piercing.
