Uncover 7 myths about condoms

in #health7 years ago

  1. A 100 percent condom protects from pregnancy

Many people think that 100% condoms are effective to prevent pregnancy. Unfortunately, you should be disappointed because this view is not entirely true. About 98 out of 100 women will not get pregnant while using condoms properly.

However, when not in the right way, then pregnancy is inevitable. People who are pregnant despite having used condoms because of the possibility of the condom breaking. Therefore, using a contraceptive pill or spiral would be a great way to delay pregnancy, other than using a condom.

  1. Can not enjoy sex

For some reason, many people believe that using a condom makes sex feel less enjoyable. Of course this is a false view. A study proves that condom use makes little difference, but it is not a big deal.

To be sure, condoms will not make a partner or someone does not feel pleasure during sex. You do not have to worry because you can still do something great by using a condom.

  1. Can not use condoms if allergic to latex

Allergic to latex (condom making material) can indeed happen. However, this does not mean you are in an unsafe sex life. This is because latex is not the only ingredient to make condoms.

You can find a condom with polyurethane material and you do not have to worry about its safety. Because condoms with polyurethane materials also have the same performance as condoms with latex materials.

  1. Condoms are easily damaged

If you keep and use a condom properly, the condom will not be damaged easily. Do not do things like biting a condom (even if it's still packaged) and storing it in the right place.

Do not store condoms in your wallet or in your pocket. You should pay attention to the correct condom store. Do not use condoms when they are approaching or even past the expiration period.

  1. It does not matter if using it with lubricant

Do not think of using a lubricant (using lotion or other) on a condom is safe. Most condoms have used lubricants in them, so you do not need to add them.

Too much lubricant will actually make latex break easily. This means that your condom is not safe to use.

  1. Bigger condoms will be better

There is little evidence to suggest that larger condoms will work better than regular-size condoms. In fact, condoms may stretch due to their elastic nature. Therefore, he can adjust to various penis sizes.

  1. Using two condoms at once

There is a myth that says using double condoms during sex results in effective results. This is a very wrong view. Using two condoms at once is a bad idea. The latex friction between the two condoms would easily damage the condom. And of course, this will provide a great opportunity for pregnancy.

Some misconceptions about the condom make it ineffective. Well, after knowing the facts, your view of the condom does not run anymore, right?
