A condom is a great form of protection and birth control; however, for it to function effectively it needs to be intact and not broken. It goes without saying that a condom breaking can be a huge mood spoiler for both you and your partner and can lead to devastating consequences.

But,3 reasons why condoms break Articles worry not, we have found three reasons that lead to condom breakages and they are easily avoidable. Thus, keeping your passion alive and not act as a hindrance.

 

  1. Steer away from heat, friction and sunlight

 

The aforementioned factors can wear the condom down over some time. So this means you should not store condoms in the glove compartment of your car, wallet (as it might lead to a lot of friction), or any place that gets direct sunlight. Instead, store all the different kinds of condoms that you have in a bedside or closet drawer, where it's dark and cool.

 

  1. Wear it properly

 

It's a simple fact that a condom will not be effective if it's not worn correctly. Make sure that you always roll them down gently, leaving a little bit of room at the top as it will help prevent any breakage or tear. In case you are too excited or nervous regarding putting the condom on, then seek help from your partner.

 

It is of utmost importance to take your time to properly put on a condom as it further reduces any tears or slippage. Moreover, if you decide to double up on condoms, thinking it might provide you more protection, then that’s not a great idea. As doubling up leads to condoms becoming less effective and thereon reducing your partner’s and your safety and protection.

 

  1. Size does matter

 

Just how jeans come in different sizes, so do condoms. This is because a variety of sizes caters to different people, are more comfortable, and allow circulation.

 

While wearing one, if you notice that your condom is too tight, then the friction and tension can cause it to tear. If you are struggling to find a condom that gives you a little leeway, opt for a bigger size. Although, if you are finding your condom to be a bit too loose or causing you to lose any sensation, go through different condoms until you find your perfect fit.

Final Note

 

Here’s hoping that if you are dealing with any problem then the aforementioned tips will act as a reminder and not act as a hindrance while you are having intercourse. If not, then keep in mind that external (sometimes known as “male”) condoms aren’t the only type of condoms in India that is available. You could also opt for internal (sometimes called “female”) condoms instead.
