At the moment I have a 00g PA and have been this size for about 18months. I want to go up to a 000g so I used a 12mm stretcher and painful though it was I managed to fit the new jewellery (circular barbell) The problem was every time I wanted to pee I couldn't because the piercing was so tight. I had to half remove the barbell so that I could 'go'. This was very impractical especially at work so I have gone back to 00g.

Any advice? A PA is different to most piercings in that 'o' rings are impossible to use there and the jump from 00g to 000g is 2mm?

Looking back it seems a comical situation but it bloody hurt LOL!

try using heavier jewellery, i pierced my pa to help stretch my urethra. and both hols have since stretched. i am at mm and only slip the larger size when it has opened itself. cant imagine te pain of tapering my pa at that size. i did it from 2.4 to 3mm and it hurt!
