How to Use Your Post-Gender Reassignment Support Kit: A Simple Guide to Controlled Circulatory Therapy

A trans-masculine vacuum pump set is designed to support gender-affirming care by gently increasing blood flow and tissue response. It may be used for sensitivity, comfort, confidence, and therapeutic support as part of trans-masculine or non-binary care.

This guide explains how to safely clean, prepare, and use a trans-masculine vacuum pump set.

Step 1: Clean the Pump Before Use

Cleaning is essential to protect sensitive tissue.

1. Disassemble removable parts if applicable.

2. Spray all body-contact parts with the BryCare antibacterial cleaner.

3. Leave cleaner on for the recommended time (usually 1–2 minutes).

4. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.

5. Pat dry with a clean towel.

Always clean before and after every use.

Step 2: Apply Lubricant

Lubrication improves comfort and helps create an effective seal.

1. Apply a generous amount of water-based lubricant to the external genital area.

2. Apply lubricant to the rim of the pump cylinder.

Avoid silicone-based lubricants.

Step 3: Position the Pump

1. Place the pump gently over the genital area.

2. Ensure it sits flat and comfortably against the body.

3. Take slow, deep breaths before applying suction.

Step 4: Apply Gentle Vacuum Pressure

1. Begin with very light suction.

2. Pause frequently to assess comfort.

3. Gradually increase suction only if comfortable.

You should feel gentle fullness or pressure, never pain.

Step 5: Use and Timing

• Start with 5 minutes per session
• Gradually increase to 10–15 minutes if comfortable
• Use once per day unless advised otherwise

Always release suction fully before removal.

Step 6: What You Should and Should Not Feel

You should feel:
• Gentle pulling or fullness
• Increased awareness or sensitivity
• Gradual tissue response

You should NOT:
• Feel pain or pinching
• Experience numbness or bruising
• Rush progression

Stop use if discomfort occurs.

Step 7: Remove and Clean After Use

1. Release suction fully.

2. Gently remove the pump.

3. Clean again with antibacterial toy cleaner.

4. Rinse, dry, and store in a clean, dry place.
