Tell your partner how you expect the dildo to be used and when and let your partner know what you are or are not comfortable with. Secondly, you may want to use a water based or silicone-based lubrication to get started. Lubrication may be more necessary when using the dildo alone. When finished with use, you should always clean your dildo by washing it with soap and water and then store it in a case or bag so it doesn’t accumulate dust or grow bacteria.
