Condoms are non-medicated forms of contraception that prevent pregnancy by blocking the union of sperm and egg. In addition, condoms can also prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea and AIDS.
In general, condoms have a contraceptive success rate of more than 95%. Male condoms are currently the most commonly used and harmless contraceptive method, which can prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.

Why are condoms not 100% effective in preventing pregnancy?
Condoms can't be said to be 100% contraceptive, possibly for the following reasons
1. Not using a condom properly
2. The quality of the condom product is poor. Please check the condoms before using them and choose condoms with guaranteed quality;
3. Improper condom size can cause semen to leak into the space, which can also lead to pregnancy;
4. A small amount of sperm has been released without using condoms in time.
5, Exposure of the condom to strong light, high heat, humidity and ozone environment, etc. will lose its strength.
6. After ejaculation, during the withdrawal of the condom, there is sperm leakage.
7. Improper use of lubricant: If mineral oil and vegetable oil such as Vaseline, common lotion on the surface of the condom, it will reduce the strength of the latex condom within 5 minutes.
What types of condom materials are there?
There are three main types of condoms: latex, polyurethane and polyisoprene. Of these, the latex condom is the most common material, followed by polyurethane, and polyisoprene is the rarest.
Latex: Latex is the most common condom material, the advantage of latex condoms is good ductility, some elastic, the texture is also relatively soft, the common raw material price is also relatively cheap. But the disadvantage is that the condoms made are thicker, for some people the experience is not good, has latex smell, and some people are allergic to latex. At this time it is necessary to choose condoms of other materials.
Polyurethane condoms: Polyurethane is a new synthetic material that is thinner than other condoms and has almost no taste, so it can't cause a feeling of disgust. It has good thermal conductivity. However, it has disadvantages. It is slightly less elastic than latex sheaths, has a higher risk of breakage, and is relatively expensive.
Polyisoprene, also a new material, is rarely used today. It has the advantages of latex condoms, high elasticity, high coefficient of friction and resistance to acid and alkali corrosion, the disadvantage is poor thermal conductivity, as well as no heat resistance, it cannot be used with oil-based lubricants. There are few polyisoprene condoms available on the market, for example, SKYN condom.
Which condom material is best?
Condom material is better to say that it is difficult to define, but for people with different constitution, there will surely be a preference. For example, people allergic to latex are better to use polyurethane sleeves, people with ordinary condoms that can easily break can choose graphene condoms. The best one may not be, but there must be the best fit.
What should I pay attention to when buying condoms?
1, The brand
Buying condoms starts with the question of determining which brand to buy. Generally, buy products from qualified manufacturers, with quality assurance. It should also suit your own taste. If you like a particular brand, you can continue to use it.
2, Size
General condoms are divided into large, medium and small. The choice of size is not correct and it is not comfortable to use. The size is too large, it easily falls off, causing semen leakage and can conceive. Too small feels tight, easy to break. Cause some semen to remain in the woman's body, easy to conceive. The choice of medium size is more common. Asians generally choose medium size.
3, The style
Condoms can often be divided into the normal type, this one that everyone often uses, is the soft type. And funny type, such as dotted, ribbed, anatomic, ultra-thin and so on. This is purchased according to everyone's personal preference. Ultra-thin to wear although very comfortable, the skin feel seems to be in contact, every 0.01mm thickness reduction, the comfort will improve more than 20%. It is not recommended for friends who have rapid ejaculation, as it may be rapid and not good for ejaculation control.
4, Production date
Be sure to check your manufacturing date when purchasing. Condoms also have an expiration date, after which the lubricant above the condom dries up and is very uncomfortable to use.
