Apart from the variety of materials used for Yoni Eggs, one of the other important characteristics is that of the difference between a drilled and undrilled Yoni Egg.
A drilled Yoni Egg means that there’s a hole in the egg from one side to another side of the egg (like a canal or tunnel if you wish), which is drilled either horizontally or vertically through the egg.
The idea is that you can attach a string (cord or thread) through the Yoni Egg to have better control over getting the egg out of the vagina (as is the case with a tampon). This simply gives more trust while using the egg. The string is typically a piece of (unwaxed and unflavored) dental floss or natural hemp.
A string through a Yoni Egg can also be used to do certain exercises, that is, notably Vaginal Weightlifting and enhanced Kegel Exercises.
Vaginal Weightlifting means that you would put some weight on the loose end of the string and clench the Yoni Egg inside your vagina to prevent it slipping out (due to the weight at the other end). Obviously, the aim of Yoni Weightlifting is to train your vaginal muscles, which are part of the pelvic floor muscles.
As for the enhanced Kegel Exercises, you can tug (pull) the string with your hand and try to pull the Yoni Egg out, while using your vaginal muscles to hold the egg in the vaginal canal by doing so-called Kegels.
When the Yoni Egg is undrilled (without a hole and string attached to it) getting the egg out the vagina works by either pushing the egg out with the vaginal muscles, or by squatting which will usually make it more easily drop out. You can also use the fingers to scoop the egg out of the vaginal canal.
Nevertheless, one of the big advantages of a non-drilled Yoni Egg compared to a drilled one is that the hole doesn’t need to be cleaned, which naturally ensures much better hygiene.
