How to use Condom Properly? Busting Myths around Contraception

SIBY JEYYA
It is important to use condoms appropriately, to put them on before erection, and to avoid having genital contact without one. You can totally prevent becoming pregnant with this. Additionally, avoid using two condoms instead of one as the friction might cause them to rip.
 
Myth #1: sex isn’t as good with a condom.

Fact: sex is actually better when both couples are using contraception! You may put less emphasis on concerns like STIs or an unplanned pregnancy and more emphasis on this enjoyable shared experience. If you or your partner experience any pain, it's probably because of a condom that's the wrong data-size or kind, that's been worn improperly, or there isn't enough lubricant—we'll talk about that in a moment.
Myth #2: Condoms are one-data-size-fits-all.
Fact: There isn't a single condom that suits every body type, but they do exist in a range of data-sizes, shapes, colors, and textures. Additionally, keep in mind that standard-data-sized condoms can stretch to quite large proportions before claiming you're "too big" to use them.
 
But Dr. Gelow cautioned, "You must data-size a condom properly." "If it's too small, there's a chance of breakage and discomfort." If they are too big, there is a chance of breakage, slippage, and a lack of protection. When it comes to purchasing condoms, find out which brand and data-size will fit you the best. In the worst situation, purchase a variety pack so you may try on several data-sizes and see which fits well.
 
Myth #3: Two condoms are better than one.
Fact: No, not at all. While it's true that two opinions are usually preferable to one when making decisions, this isn't the case with condoms. "The best way to lower your risk of STIs and pregnancy is to use one condom correctly," Dr. Gelow stated. Because of increased friction and incorrect fit, using two might increase the chance of damage.
