I carry everything with me – this motto should have been successfully applied to condoms, however, in domestic open spaces, for some reason, many men still have a very strained (in every sense) relationship with the most popular contraceptive in the world. Many representatives of the stronger sex prefer to dissuade the use of "elastic bands" formulaic phrases, and some women willingly follow their lead and, listening to stereotypes, agree to supposedly more thrilling sensations. Alas, such acuity more often means long and expensive treatment by a gynecologist or venereologist than some unusual pleasure from intimacy.
Why you can't live without condoms nowadays, how to use them correctly and how to choose the perfect condom – read in the material estet-portal.com.
Correct choice and use of condom
Despite the fact that for many years the status of the most popular contraceptive in the world has been assigned to product No. 2, not all men (as well as women) of the CIS countries are sufficiently aware of all the nuances of choosing and using rubber bands. Ignorance, accordingly, gives rise to many rumors, false information, stereotypes and even fears.
Well, let's dispel some popular myths.
Contrary to the opinion of some, even a condom is not a 100% guarantee of preventing unwanted pregnancy (let alone other methods of contraception…).
However, 98% efficiency – still, a fairly significant statistical indicator that speaks in favor of the choice of latex products. Well, no one has canceled venereal diseases, which will not be able to slip through such a reliable barrier (if, of course, they are used correctly, but we will talk about this a little lower).
The effectiveness of condom protection (both against pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases) is reduced by 15% or more if the partner uses the "sheath" ineptly. For example, he puts it on inside out (to avoid this, when putting on a condom, you need to roll it over the penis from top to bottom), forgets to release air from the tip of the product after putting it on, puts on an "elastic band"; on an insufficiently erect penis or in the heat of passion does not notice that the latex is torn. And one more important nuance if the couple practices not only vaginal, but also anal sex! Before each change of penetration site, you need to change the condom to a new one so as not to bring bacteria from one mucosa to another, provoking an inflammatory process.
By the way, if you are not shy about having sex (especially with different partners, especially with unfamiliar people), but at the same time you are shy about buying condoms (this mainly applies to girls), then discard hypocrisy and false modesty. To make it easier to do this, just google some statistics on the number of HIV-infected people in your country. When you realize that out of ten partners, at least one can reward you with an incurable and fatal disease, then the enthusiasm to play sexual Russian roulette is over. somehow diminish.
And if a partner insists on unprotected sexual contact under various pretexts, then think about it: do you really need sex with him if he doesn't care about your health and future?
This, of course, does not apply to stable monogamous relationships in which both partners have been tested for STDs and are confident in each other's fidelity. However, even married couples should keep the treasured packaging in their first-aid kit. For example, in case a joint passion seizes lovers during menstrual days. We have nothing against sex on critical days – on the contrary, it has a lot of useful advantages for a woman, but the slightest oversight in everything related to hygiene during such a period is fraught with inflammation and other dangerous consequences for a lady. Using a condom will reduce these risks to an absolute minimum. Also, you can’t have sex without a condom if one of the couple treats inflammation or a violation of the microflora – otherwise, both will have to be treated later and for a long time,
Okay, okay, that's all clear, you say. – But what if a man is categorically against the use of a condom, because it prevents him from concentrating on sensations? Yes, variations of the common phrase "Having sex in a condom – it's like smelling flowers in a gas mask" Every woman has heard from her partner at least once in her life. Here the inexorable and cruel statistics strikes on the spot and overturns all objections. Namely: scientific studies have shown that the majority of men who complained of problems with erection in a condom, allegedly due to a decrease in sensitivity, symptoms of erectile dysfunction, one way or another, manifested themselves in ordinary intimate life (even without a condom). So do not believe in the assurances that the partner is supposedly only in a condom – alas and oh but without a condom – sex giant. If you have serious intentions in a relationship, then it’s better to gently hint your loved one to go to a sexologist and urologist.As for the decrease in sensitivity, then in many respects this can be influenced by an incorrectly selected size. Here you will have to experiment a little and find out empirically or not be ashamed to consult in a sex shop. You can also order in the same sex shops super-thin weightless products that are half thinner than ordinary "elastic bands". and are made from other materials (also suitable for those who are allergic to latex).
Just make sure that there are certificates for such a product that are beyond doubt! And in general, it’s better not to buy product No. 2 anywhere except in pharmacies, reliable proven sex shops and large retail chains. There, of course, there is also the possibility of running into counterfeit products, but it is negligible.
And do not forget that if you buy a lubricant for a condom, then only water-based. Oil based lubricants destroy latex.
As you can see, with a thorough approach to choosing a condom and using it correctly, you get a pleasant and reliable barrier against pregnancy and disease. It's worth it! estet-portal.com wishes readers a pleasant and safe intimacy!
