My PA is 4 months old and is healed really well. Currently 10g, I have and 8g CBR ready for my next up size.

It is healed and after a long shower today I took out the 10g and tried to put in the 8g. Definitely not happening and I didn't want to force it so I just put the 10g back in.

Looking at it there does not appear to be any signs of stretching. The scar or the "tunnel" maybe it looks a bit thicker than what it should be... And if I bend the ring to the left or the right, I can see tiny gaps telling me that there is some space in there.

I know 4 months is still quite early, but how long do you think it'll be until it will be safe for upsizing? I am now having regular sex with no issue, It's healed. It's calm! It's happy!

Is the idea of adding a bit of weight to it in the shower a bad idea? I'd like to do this as naturally as possible without forcing it, but ideally as soon as possible.

Any tips or advice would be great.
