Ill-Fitting Condoms
Condoms are twice as likely to split and prevent both partners from reaching orgasm if the condom does not fit correctly.
In the last three months it has been proven that 45 % of men aged between 18-67 use condoms that are not the right size. Not only does this increase the chance of the condom splitting it also includes other difficulties, it interferes with performance, double the chance of erection loss and being more likely to remove the condom before climax as it has become uncomfortably dry.
Ill-Fitting condoms also reduce the amount of pleasure and sensation; this is why men seem to think that sex with a condom is less pleasurable. This makes people less inclined to use protection, the result of this is that there are more children being born into unwanted families and more STI’s (sexually transmitted infections) are being spread. What’s better than highly pleasurable, safe sex? This is easy to maintain if you find the right size condom.
Choosing the best condom size is simple. The average condom size will fit a majority of men comfortably (7inches long, 2 inches width, 5 inches girth) Magnum sized condoms are not much bigger; they are 8 inches long and 6 inches width. Large condoms work well for these men as they are not as restrictive as the average size. Snug fit condoms tend to usually be the same length as average condoms the only difference is the width. They are about 1.75 inches wide. These condoms are for men with less width; they will prevent any slipping off during sex and have less chance of excessive material ruining your pleasure.
You should always remember to also keep condoms in a cool, dry place to keep the reliability of the condom at the highest it can be. Also remember that the tip of the condom should have no air left in as there needs to be room for the semen if ejaculation occurs.
So next time you think sex with a condom is less pleasurable, think about checking your condom size!
