Wearing condom is the only reliable protection against sexually transmitted infections and diseases (IST, STD) and unwanted pregnancies.These risks do not seem to be heard by everyone, since a report by the World Health Organization (WHO) produced in 2019 indicates that about 1 million people contract an MST per day.
Protecting yourself by properly choosing your condom is more than ever necessary.Here are the main criteria to take into account before choosing your condom.
The importance of choosing a condom at the right size
The first criterion to take into account when choosing a condom is undoubtedly the size of the penis.Even if it seems rather logical, this is not a criterion truly acquired by all men.""They tend to overestimate the size of their sex,"" says Nathalie Giraud-Desforges, sexotherapist.
Inflate the size of its penis is however risky for both parties.""After ejaculation, the condom may remain at the bottom of the partner's vagina.In this case, all its profits fall the water and the risks of STI, MST and pregnancy return, ""insists the expert.Clearly, using a too large condom endangered the two partners.
Comment prendre du plaisir en fonction de la taille de son pénis ?To find the appropriate condom size, you must calculate the nominal width of your sex.For this, it is necessary to divide the circumference of the latter by 3.14.
But the sexotherapist rather recommends testing different sizes.She also advises to put her condom before the erection.""He must hold on sex, even soft, then accompany the erection,"" she insists.There are also condom size tables available on the internet to facilitate the mission.

All purchases are motivated by needs or desires.For condoms, it's the same thing.Before you throw yourself on the first box seen on the shelves of the supermarket, try to identify your needs and your desires.""Do I favor sensation or protection?"" Asks Nathalie Giraud-Desforges.
For good reason, there are more or less thick condoms that do not bring the same advantages.""The more it is fine, the more it makes skin with the penis, the more you have the feeling of carrying nothing,"" describes the sexotherapist.On the other hand, if you are followers of ""vigorous and intense sex"", the expert advises you on invisible and fine condoms: ""They risk cracking.""

Remember, however, that all condoms including CE marking (European standards) or NF (French standards) have passed solidity and porosity tests.But some of them can still crack during a very intense report.
What subject to favor to choose a condom?
The standard condoms available in supermarkets are mainly manufactured from latex.Used for its flexible and resistant qualities, this material can however create allergic reactions in some people.

The possibility of choosing the female condom
The female condom, also called internal condom, is a means of mechanical contraception.It prevents sperm from advancing to the oocyte and therefore fertilizing it.It allows you to protect yourself against the STIs.More difficult to find and more expensive than its male counterpart, the internal condom is available than one -sized.But it nevertheless adapts to the shape and size of all vaginas.

Made of polyurethane, it is particularly fine.It therefore offers more feeling than male condom and can be installed up to eight hours before the report.
The choice of condom: the need to take into account his partner
When you are in a relationship, the choice of condom must be made at two. ""Ce n’est pas qu’une affaire d’homme, tout comme la pilule n’est pas qu’une affaire de femmes"", explique Nathalie Giraud-Desforges.
After agreeing on the thickness, you can now be interested in the texture of the condom.Do you want to discover new sensations during penetration?You can test a pearl, ribbed or even rolled condom.
If your partner particularly likes to make blowjobs, you can think of the scented condoms.The pleasure will only be increased tenfold.You will understand, condoms are not a constraint.On the contrary, when they are well used and appreciated at their fair value, they can even turn into an erotic accessory.
