Condoms are an essential part of good sexual health. They protect against the spread of both STIs and viral infections, such as Ebola and Zika. They can also prevent unplanned pregnancies. If the external condom is too tight or too loose, it is unable to serve its intended purpose as contraception. Experts recommend people with a penis try on external condoms when their penis is fully erect to best determine what size works well for them. “The average penis size is 5 to 7 inches long, with a girth of 3.5-6 inches in circumference,” Dr. Gaither says. “Most condoms are 7 inches long, and have a reservoir at the tip for semen collection.”There are several key signs to pay attention to that could indicate if the external condom is too small or too big on the penis. Some condoms come with spermicide on them. You should avoid using this type, or using spermicide as a lubricant, as it does not protect against STIs and may increase your risk of infection. Who can use condoms? If you're having vaginal sex, sperm can sometimes get into the vagina during sex, even when using a condom. This may happen if: Some people are allergic to latex condoms. If this is a problem, polyurethane or polyisoprene condoms are less likely to cause an allergic reaction.you use oil-based lubricants, such as lotion, baby oil or petroleum jelly, with latex or polyisoprene condoms – this damages the condom You can get condoms from drugstores, Planned Parenthood health centers, community health centers, doctor’s offices, supermarkets, convenience stores, online, and even from vending machines. You don’t need a prescription and there are no age restrictions — anybody can buy condoms. Most people can safely use condoms, but they may not be the most suitable method of contraception for everyone. Polyurethane is a plastic material used in many contexts, from insulation to furniture and condoms. Polyurethane condoms are usually thinner than latex condoms, and they are better at transferring heat. Some couples find that using condoms interrupts sex – to get around this, try to make using a condom part of foreplay.

You only need to use them when you have sex – they do not need advance preparation and are suitable for unplanned sex. According to Dr. Cross, one sign is if the external condom slips on too easily, looks loose, or “you feel like it is moving during intercourse.” This indicates that the external condom is too large and the user should select a smaller size. “If you’re struggling to get it on or you’re putting it on and it feels like it’s cutting off your blood supply, then it’s probably too tight,” Dr. Cross adds. “A condom shouldn’t be uncomfortable.” Lubrication

Condoms are most effective when used correctly. Use the following advice on how to use a condom properly: If you have difficulty keeping an erection, you may not be able to use condoms because the penis must be erect to prevent semen from leaking or the condom slipping off. When used correctly every time you have sex, male condoms are 98% effective. This means 2 out of 100 people will become pregnant in 1 year when male condoms are used as contraception. To reduce the chances of getting pregnant, use another form of contraceptive as well, such as longer-acting methods (the implant, injection, intrauterine system (IUS) or intrauterine device (IUD) or the combined pill, contraceptive patch or vaginal ring). Condom companies do not always make their sizes readily available, and brand measurements vary between sources.
