    First, you don’t say exactly what kind of piercing you’re referring to. You can actually pierce your clitoris, but this is a tricky piercing and can cause nerve damage. Most women get either a horizontal or vertical hood – the skin that covers the clitoris. I have a vertical hood piercing, 14g. Honestly, it’s the easiest piercing I’ve ever had. The pain was minimal and the healing was extremely quick. I was able to have sex right away and I’ve never had a problem with it. This is true of most women I know who have similar piercings.

    The main problems would be tearing and infection. In the first 4 to 6 weeks after piercing, you should not have unprotected sex. It is an open wound, after all. (You shouldn’t be having unprotected sex, anyway!) You should also clean the area twice a day or so, preferably with a sea salt solution (just like the aftercare with any other piercing, I suppose). Tearing can be avoided by not doing anything painful. Go slow during sex until you figure out what feels good and what doesn’t, what makes you sore, etc. Don’t let your partner pull on your jewelry. Don’t you pull on your jewelry. Common sense rules here.

    You will probably also want to experiment with jewelry. Some people like rings, some like barbells. I like both. The bigger the gauge, the less likely your piercing is to rip. But if you’re going 12g or larger, consider titanium jewelry – it’s lighter.
