Sometimes, condom fail to give the protection they are worn for – mostly due to the fault of the user.
Most
often than not, it is as a result of improper use (wearing) of the
condom and , like Wha’anda has severally said, a condom is 98% effective
if used well and 0% effective if wrongly used.
It
can be terrifying sometimes to find that the condom you are wearing is
broken and your sexual safety has been compromised, with possible
pregnancy and/or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Have you ever had a
condom break on you? It’s terrifying. The good news is that it is
avoidable in the future, as long as you learned why it happened.
Condom bursting, tearing, breaking, ripping can because by a number of things:
Expired/wrongly stored –
an expired condom or one that was stored in extreme temperatures, left
in wallets and places where pressure is applied to it. It weakens and
might tear
Air bubble in the condom –
if you allow air bubble to remain when wearing the condom, you might
have a pressure point that will lead to a tear when thrusting
Too tight – if the condom is too tight, it could tear during sex
Not lubricated – the condom’s material became dry and hot because not enough additional lubricant was added;
Oil-based lube
– if you use improvised oil-based lubricant like Vaseline or other
petroleum jelly, you could weaken the condom leading to a leak/tear
Wrongly opened –
if you opened condom with your teeth, scissors, or a knife you can
compromise the integrity and rip it. when you attempt sex, it is likely
to tear further
Hairy vaginal/Penis area –
during sex involving hairy pubic region, there is the possibility that
hair strands are pushed in and the continuous friction can tear the
condom
Newly shaved vagina – hair on a newly shaved vagina is prickly and sharp. It can tear the condom at the slightest contact
Lack of space at the tip of a condom –
when wearing a condom, you need to leave a little space at the tip. If
this is not done, it could tear, especially during ejaculation
Ensure that you check out all these things when next you use a condom so as to get maximal protection.
Otherwise, there is no point using one in the first place…
