Many people begin exploring toys in their forties or later. There is no right age to start, and a first toy can be a simple, enjoyable step.
Comfort first
Choose a toy that is gentle and easy to control. Start with the lowest setting and short sessions.
Talk to a professional if needed
If you have a health change or pain, speak to a doctor before you start.
