Misconceptions about condom use: Have you misunderstood them?

Many people believe that stopping to put on a condom when both parties are in the heat of the moment and reluctant to part is "a big spoiler" and will put people off the mood for sex. In fact, unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases are the real "desire killers", making people full of worries and unable to commit themselves.

Expert guidance: Wearing a condom can be considered as part of foreplay. It will be a very interesting part for a woman to use her delicate hands to put the condom on her partner and gently caress and tease him.

Myth 2: Condoms reduce male pleasure

This is the most common excuse men give for not using condoms. Many women believed it, only to regret it in the end. The latest authoritative research has found that condoms do not have much effect on men's pleasure.

Expert guidance: Don't look at condoms with "tinted glasses". Not only will it not affect the pleasure, some condoms with special functions, such as those with threads, floating points, ultra-thin, etc., can help reduce worries and enhance fun and pleasure.

Myth 3: Latex can easily cause allergies

Many people feel uncomfortable after using condoms, and the first thing they think of is latex allergy. In fact, latex allergies are very rare, and some people may just be allergic to the fragrance or lubricant added to condoms.

Expert tip: If you experience mild discomfort after use, you can try changing brands. If you are sure you are allergic to latex, you can also try using non-latex condoms, such as condoms made of polyurethane and lambskin.

Myth 4: Condoms should be carried with you at all times

Although this can help you prepare for an emergency, it is not advisable most of the time. Because condoms need to be properly stored to ensure "safety". If stored in a hot and humid environment, it will become thinner and brittle, and easily get holes and tears.

Expert Tip: Store condoms in a dry, cool and safe environment whenever possible. In fact, it is very convenient to buy condoms now. You don’t have to carry them with you and it can also avoid embarrassment.

Myth 5: Men can ensure safety by wearing it before ejaculation

This is totally wrong because before ejaculation, the fluid flowing out of the penis already contains a small amount of sperm, which can cause women to become pregnant, and not wearing a condom also increases the risk of sexually transmitted diseases.

Expert guidance: Men should wear a condom before any sexual activity, such as intimate contact, foreplay, etc.

Myth 6: Wearing two condoms can prolong the duration

Some people believe that wearing two condoms can increase protection and reduce sexual sensitivity, allowing sex to last longer. In fact, wearing two condoms is worse than wearing one, because the friction between the latex condoms can easily cause them to break and crack.

Expert guidance: Choosing the right model and using it correctly is the safest approach.

Myth 7: Used condoms can be reused

Some people have sex multiple times with only one condom and are likely to reuse it. This is very dangerous because the condom will become brittle and easily break.

Expert guidance: Regardless of whether a man has ejaculated or not, condoms cannot be reused. The safest way is to buy one nearby or stop having sex.
