Kegel balls vs Brazilian balls vs yoni egg: which one should you choose?
Share
You want to strengthen your pelvic floor. Or explore new sensations. Or both.
You typed “Kegel balls” into Google and… you landed in a world where everything looks the same: geisha balls, Kegel balls, Ben Wa balls, Brazilian balls, yoni eggs, vibrating love balls…
How do you know which one is right for you?
Breathe. We’ll untangle it all together: no jargon, no judgement, and with practical tips so you make the right choice.
What exactly are they?
These three accessories have one thing in common: they are inserted into the vagina. But their purpose, shape and use are different.
Kegel balls (geisha balls)
Also called “Ben Wa balls” or “love balls”. They are usually two balls joined by a cord, with a removal string. Inside each ball there is often a small weight that creates micro-vibrations when you move.
Main goal: strengthening the pelvic floor.
Brazilian balls
Smaller, often sold in sets. They are designed to be inserted and then released during an intimate moment (alone or as a couple). Some have textures, warming or cooling effects.
Main goal: pleasure and sensations.
The yoni egg
An egg made of natural stone (jade, rose quartz, obsidian…) with no internal mechanism. It comes from an ancient Taoist practice linked to feminine energy.
Main goal: self-connection, gentle pelvic floor rehab, spiritual practice.
The clear comparison
Kegel balls
Who is it for? Women who want to strengthen their pelvic floor effectively
Sensation? Light internal vibrations when you walk or move
How long? 15 to 30 minutes a day, during your activities
Difficulty? Easy to moderate (depending on the weight)
Material? Medical-grade silicone, ABS
Pleasure effect? Indirect: a toned pelvic floor = more sensation during sex
Brazilian balls
Who is it for? Women who want to spice up an intimate moment
Sensation? Warm, cool, vibrating or textured, depending on the model
How long? A few minutes, during foreplay
Difficulty? Very easy
Material? Often gel-like, single-use or reusable
Pleasure effect? Direct: that’s what they’re made for!
Yoni egg
Who is it for? Women looking for a holistic, spiritual approach
Sensation? A gentle presence, a connection with your body
How long? It varies: meditation, yoga, even overnight for some
Difficulty? Requires listening to your body
Material? Natural stone (jade, quartz, obsidian)
Pleasure effect? Subtle: it’s more about reconnection than stimulation
How to choose? Ask yourself these 3 questions
1. What is your main goal?
→ Strengthen your pelvic floor (postpartum, bladder leaks, tone)? Kegel balls are made for that.
→ Add some spice to your intimate moments? Brazilian balls are your ally.
→ Reconnect with your body and explore your feminine energy? The yoni egg is for you.
2. Are you a beginner or already comfortable?
If it’s your first time:
Start with light silicone Kegel balls (25–30 g), or a drilled size M yoni egg (with a removal string). Brazilian balls are also very easy for a gentle start.
If you already have experience:
You can move on to heavier balls for more of a challenge, or try Brazilian balls with warm/cool effects.
3. Alone or as a couple?
Alone, every day → Kegel balls or yoni egg
As a couple, to play → Brazilian balls (the surprise of hot and cold… 🔥)
Both → Honestly, you can have all three! They complement each other.
And what about the pelvic floor?
We hear about it a lot, but what exactly is it?
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles forming a “hanging hammock” between your pubic bone and your tailbone. It supports your organs (bladder, uterus, rectum) and plays a key role in:
✅ Controlling bladder leaks
✅ The quality of sensations during sex
✅ The intensity of orgasms
✅ Postpartum recovery
A toned pelvic floor = more control, more sensation, more confidence.
The good news? Like any muscle, it can be trained. Kegel balls and yoni eggs are perfect tools for pelvic floor exercises.

Mistakes to avoid
❌ Starting too heavy — If you’re a beginner, choose light balls (25–30 g). Too heavy = muscles straining the wrong way = counter-productive.
❌ Wearing them too long — 15–30 minutes is enough for Kegel balls. Longer can tire your pelvic floor.
❌ Forgetting lubricant — Especially for a stone yoni egg. A water-based lube makes insertion easier and more comfortable. 👉 Our natural lubricants
❌ Not cleaning them properly — Before AND after each use: lukewarm water + mild soap or a dedicated toy cleaner.
❌ Choosing doubtful materials — Always go for medical-grade silicone, ABS or certified natural stones. Avoid porous materials that can harbour bacteria.
FAQ — Your most common questions
Can they get stuck?
No! The vagina is a closed canal (it doesn’t open into the uterus). With a removal string, it’s impossible to “lose” anything. And even without a string, your muscles can push them out naturally.
Do Kegel balls really work for the pelvic floor?
Yes, as long as you use them regularly. Studies show that exercises with Kegel balls significantly improve pelvic floor tone and reduce bladder leaks.
Can I use them during my period?
It’s possible but not always comfortable. Listen to your body: if you don’t feel like it, wait a few days.
Are they compatible with an IUD (coil)?
Yes, but check that your IUD strings aren’t too long. If in doubt, ask your gynaecologist.
Can I use them during pregnancy?
Not without medical advice. During pregnancy, the pelvic floor naturally prepares for birth, and working it with accessories may not be suitable.
In short
Kegel balls → Pelvic floor strengthening → 15–30 min/day → Beginner to experienced
Brazilian balls → Pleasure & sensations → Intimate moments → Everyone
Yoni egg → Connection & gentle rehab → Varies → Beginner to advanced
My advice? If you’re still unsure, start with the Pelvic Floor Rehab Kit. It includes a yoni egg + a complete guide to start safely.
And if you just want to have fun… the cooling Brazilian balls are a must. 😏
