While condoms are the safest and easiest available sexual pleasure enhancers as well as birth controllers and protectors from STD, in spite of their positive points, if used improperly can be catastrophic. Condoms, though are in reach of everyone but there are some proper ground rules which must be kept in mind while using condoms. Some of these areas under:
Why condoms get torn?
Improper carrying and storing of condoms tends to break them down.
Condoms are stored in wallets by many men and it might result in them breaking
or puncturing because of your coin purse or keys, same goes if you store
condoms in glove box of your car as temperature rises in there. Condoms must be
stores precisely at room temperature away from heat and sunlight. Extreme
conditions can take away elasticity of condoms and hence can result in breaking
of those. We must also check some common things while buying them or before
using them such as manufacturing and expiry of condoms. Using them at their
prime offers proper lubrication as well as slim chances of getting broken.
Application issues also lead to more problems such as spillage and
chances of pregnancy. Holding the tip tightly for no air inside and rolling up to
the base of an erect penis are very important. The most basic part of it is
that it should be applied on an erect penis only and if by any mistake it is
rolled inside out, the same condom should not be used again. It should be
thrown away. Another part of improper condom usage is that one condom is used
for anal, vaginal and oral sex which is not suitable. One condom must be thrown
away after one part of the intercourse.
There is a common supposition and rumur that using two condoms
instead of one will double up the protection. The reverse is true but this is
not. If we use two condoms on top of each other, it will result in increased
friction which will lead to the condom tearing up. A single condom provides
lubrication whereas using two condoms only leads to losing it and resulting in
friction. It is the best that we must stick to using a single condom per time.
Condoms should not be reused. They should not be reused even if you
are during the intercourse with same person. These are one time usage products
and once you lose erection, these must be thrown away. Using condoms again
increases chances of spreading STD, safeguarding from which you earlier did use
condom. So to avoid going back to square one, we must always use a condom once
and never reuse it. Condoms should not be used for multiple body parts too. If
a condom is used during oral sex, it cannot be used for vaginal or anal. This
is because we do not want condom to become a carrier of fluids hence resulting
in STD to our partner and then it reaching out to us.
Things to consider while
buying a condom?
Condoms are available in market in a lot of material choices. They
vary from latex to animal based condoms. While latex are the industry standards
with protection, animal based condoms do not offer same level of protection. So
we must be very careful with our choice of products. Further there are other
types of condoms like glow in the dark condoms which are objectified for
entertainment purposes more than protection. So these kind of condoms do
not provide that level of protection.
Choosing an adequate lubricant is important. While condoms do have
lubrication on them, you must also use additional water based lubrication to
make friction go hence lowering chances of condom puncture. Oil based
lubrication should be avoided as it can rupture condoms. Always use water based
lubrication.
