Heey all, sorry for this topic
I used the search function but it would not work

Ok, the question is, How do you tuck? I can't honestly do it, I tried last night and it hurt quite badly!
Any info would be awesome.

F***ing tucks, how do they work?

Mostly it comes from wearing panties that are a half to a size too small, and is aided greatly by the shrinkage or removal of the testes. Testes shrink on HRT (no fluid, shrink. Wish mine would shrink more.)

You push them back up into the abdomenal cavity on either side of the penis, where they came  from, and pull the penis back, while pulling your underwear up in a way to support them. The band of my panties is typically not too far above where the shaft starts, to apply pressure to hold stuff in. But i couldn't tuck until I was off testosterone for several months.

To me, using two pairs of thongs works the best. I have a speciality gaff (purchased for like $35 online... rip off price) that actually works the best of anything now that i've gained enough weight for it to fit snuggly, but you could probably get cheaper from a dance supply store. Male dancers wear them.

It takes a bit of practice but as Autumn said push the testes back into the canal they descended from, it may be partially closed so you may have to work on it. After a shower is a good time as your body is relaxed. After pushing them in fold the penis backwards between them. Some people fold any extra scrotal tissue over the shaft, then pull up a gaff or tight panties. If it hurts stop. I tuck all the time with this strange and probably non-scientific idea that the increased temperature of the testes will destroy them. Keep on dreaming I suppose

I'm sure some can, but for me, it just doesn't work. I'm far too small. If I try, it hurts for a while then pops out.

If, like me, you're more shaped like a small tennis ball, then use a pad.

It contours your middle and makes you feel good.

It's easier when you start HRT. you need to be ummm not aroused. 

Push Testes into body gently, pull back..., pull one size too small panties up tight, put on second pair of panties to get that smooth look.

If you just started tucking pain is to be expected at first, if it continues though please consult your doctor, cause I'm not one.

It should get easier and easier.

It is one of the advantages of having an Orchie, tucking is much more easier.

But once the twin shrink some they will go up where they will be hidden.  Try laying down.  It does help.

I've tried this and it's extremely uncomfortable when they get pushed into their cavities. Is that normal?
This subject has always eluded me so I just stopped trying and only wear things that don't require tucking like skirts, sweats, or looser jeans.

It will get better with Spiro as the twins shrink.

When I first started tucking it would hurt and the testes would pop out 

But as mentioned, over time it didn't hurt and became easier...

Now the testes rarely ever pop out, even when I go potty and I usually just have to re-tuck one of them and put the penis clitoris in place

So not only has it become easier, it's also quicker 

There are variations is the male anatomy so things might not work out for everyone.

If you have any sort of tendency to get aroused, even slightly, then tucking could suddenly become very uncomfortable. It might look a little odd if some nice, well dressed woman suddenly bent over.

You need to use your imagination and try different things. If you have a hang up with pads then try to get over it.

As i've gotten older I tend to leak a bit. But I used pads before that. Properly sited, they look fine.

the cavity - inguinal canal - is only big enough to take the thick cord of tube/veins etc...the testicle came through the cavities when you were little..they ain't supposed to go back up there so obviously it will probbaly hurt..but all bodies vary anyway.

body heat won't kill them but just makes the sperm weak.

last Thursday I had a double operation to mend an inguinal hernia - intestine was pushing through the canal -  and also remove the other testicle.  I was ecpecting surgeon to make a small slit down side of scrotum to remove the testicle and another small incision to do a keyhole repair of the hernia as shown on telly..
OMG! I take the dressing off to see just one massive incison in lower abdomen about 4 inches long. He must have made such a big one to reach in and drag the testicle up and out.
It has been agony

I also find tucking rather uncomfortable. I'm hoping that'll change with hormone treatment, though.

Also, lilacwoman, I am so sorry to hear that. I hope you recover quickly, that sounds so awful. :[

yeah, this is something i have been having trouble with, but im a persistant girl, i guess i will figure it out eventually, ill need to before going full time.

Ouch on the surgery there, I hope it all will work out.

If you get control top pantyhose you can cut the legs out and it makes a pretty decent gaffe. I used this for a while but then realized as others stated you can use two pairs of panties. Now I don't make an effort to tuck. It seems it is just automatic now. Just pull panties up and I am tucked!

I don't really think about it any more. it hurt a bit to start with, but now it's fine. I'll go with what's already been said with the two pairs of underwear...works just fine for me.

I must say that I find this topic completely fascinating. I hope you don't mind me poking my nose in here.

Kind of like walking in on your sister taking a bath, isn't it. 

I did figure out a good method of tucking which I posted on another site under guides for Keeping them tucked.

Very frustrating for most new MtF out there that don't know how to tuck, most of the guides are totally crummy, I personally hated having to touch that part of my body, and so the 99% advertised technique of poking the testes up there was not an option for me. It didn't work anyway.
My method was to pretty much force enough pressure to make the testes move the the spot, then apply the pressure directly on the testes to encourage them to go up.

Worked VERY well, and was very pain free.

Here it is;

QuoteTechnique to help get your testes up inside your body.

This technique is very effective, and once mastered, can be done in under 30 seconds. I personally use this technique as I have found it fast and easy.

Step 1) Grab a pair of panties and put them on. Step 2) Gently grab your package and pull the whole lot back as far as you can, but not to the point that you feel pain. (At this point, your testes should be just before your anus) Step 3) Pull your panties up tight (so there is no excess room and so your junk doesn\'t move) Step 4) Grab your non-preferred hand (I\'m right handed, so I use my left for this part) and place it gently over the whole area. Step 5) Gently apply pressure to the area, starting from your finger tips, (so your testes move up towards your abdomen)

When your testes go up as far as they can with little to no pressure. Apply a bit more pressure using your palm evenly on both testes at the same time. When you start to feel the sensation of being kicked in the balls, apply a little bit less pressure and they will go up there automatically. This is the most comfortable way I have found to put my testes up into my abdomen and recommend it for just about everyone! \\\'\\\'Contributed by SarahM. (08/01/2010)\\\'\\\'

Although, nowdays, I don't bother with tucking unless I have a skirt on. Thankfully my wonder pills (Yeah, they are blue and white, you know what they are) have worked magic on my entire body and mind, and shrunk that disgusting part enough that I can have tight shaped low rise flare jeans in public, not tuck, and get away with it. (I do generally have tight panties on, they do help a lot!)

I don't know blue and white!  what are they?

Love that. Sorry Rowan of course you are welcome. I sometime sneak on the guys topics ( OK I'm very well known for not sneaking just going for it).

I suppose one question Rowan may address how much do guys look at girls crotches as compared to how much do girls look at guys? We seem to want the perfect 'clean cut' Guys seem to want to bulge out, virtually anywhere
