Types of Condoms
In this article we focus on the types of male condoms.
The difference between having sex with a condom and without it, is reason enough for some people not to use it, falling into the risk of an unwanted pregnancy, and of course, of contracting any sexually transmitted disease.
Some brands and manufacturers have gone to work to try that this does not happen, and have released hundreds of different types of condoms. I'm going to classify these condoms in 8 different categories. How is it logical, not all brands sell all, or at the same price, but in the market we have available at least this variety that I leave.
- Condoms with temperature effect
- Extra fine condoms
- Aromatic condoms
- Condoms with retardant effect
- Embossed condoms (textured)
- Fluorescent condoms
- Flavor condoms
- Extra safe condoms
In addition to these types of condoms that are more oriented to pleasure, to the sexual "game" ... we can find 2 other groups more oriented to the efficacy or necessity, but that do not contribute anything extra "pleasant" to the sexual act.
- Condoms with spermicides
- Hypoallergenic condoms
Temperature effect
Surely you have seen some adverts of lubricants with heat effect and cold effect ... In Durex for example, we have these really incredible lubricants available !!
Well, condoms with temperature effect have the same function. They have applied a thermal lubricant that together with friction and humidity generates a really hot and cold effect for both you and your partner !!
It is a really different feeling that gives an original touch to the sexual relationship and that I encourage you to try either through these condoms, or using the lubricant that I mentioned earlier.
You can find it for example in control condoms (Control Energy) and Durex condoms (Heat effect), Trojan condoms (Trojan Fire & Ice), Sico condoms (Sico Hot Pleasure) then I leave you links to buy them at an unbeatable price!
Extra Fine
As you know, one of the main disadvantages of using a condom is the lack of sensitivity compared to having sex without it. With this type of condoms this is solved !!
They have created an ultra-thin latex that barely reduces sensitivity during sexual intercourse, and will give you the impression of having sex without a condom on. In addition, they have achieved the same security as with the normal condom, so do not worry if it can be broken !! Logically it will influence if you put the condom correctly and the use you give it.
There is a wide variety of manufacturers that market this type of condom.
We have Durex Condoms (Durex Sensitive, Real Feel Durex), Condoms Control (Ultra Feel), Trojan Condoms (Trojan Sensitivity Ultra Thin / Skin Nude), Condoms Sico (Sensitive, Ultra Sense) ...
Aromatics
Sometimes the smell during a sexual relationship is somewhat uncomfortable and even unpleasant. That's why they have invented condoms with aromas that hide any bad smell , and allow you to have sex with total comfort.
You can find condoms with aroma of chocolate, mint, natural tea, apple, banana, rose, caramel, coconut, melon, tutti-frutti, coke, vanilla, cream, watermelon ....
As you can see, the amount of options you have to try and give a different touch to each sexual relationship is huge!
Retardant Effect
This is perhaps one of the most exciting categories and that you will like the most. There are quite a few people who have premature ejaculation, and many others who do not, but who will surely love to take longer to finish ...
Well with these condoms you have your solution! They have developed condoms that contain an internal lubricant with a substance (benzocaine) that prolongs and delays the climax .
These condoms are brutal, and I strongly encourage you to try them! You will prolong much more the pleasure of yours, as of your partner, and the sex will be longer !!
A large variety of brands market them. Dúrex Condoms ( Prolonging Pleasure, Mutual Climax), Control Condoms (Control Non Stop, Control Retard), Trojan Condoms (Trojan Extended), Sico Condoms (Sico Mutual Climax).
Textured
Textured condoms are those that have stretch marks, dots , and other reliefs on the surface of the condom . These condoms are designed to try to simulate the touch of the penis, since it is not completely smooth.
With these condoms your partner will hallucinate with pleasure, and feel a much more fun feeling than with a totally smooth condom. Each brand manufactures condoms with different textures and with totally original reliefs, so we encourage you to try and choose the one that you and your partner like the most!
Control Condoms (Touch & Feel, Non Stop), Durex Condoms (Mutual Climax, Pleasure Me / Dame Pleasure, Intense), Trojan Condoms (Textured Ecstasy), Sico Condoms (Mutual Climax, Pleasure Feel, Pearl)
Fluorescents
If you want to spend an original time in the dark, opt for fluorescent condoms. These condoms shine in the dark, and they can be really fun. They protect in the same way as a normal condom, so you can use them safely.
They are available in brands such as Glow or Prudence condoms .
Flavors
To avoid the unpleasant taste of latex when practicing oral sex, male condoms are commercialized with a great variety of flavors.
The condoms of flavors are present in most of the most important brands, and are also usually accompanied by characteristic colors, to easily differentiate the flavors.
These condoms have exactly the same guarantees and protection as a normal condom, so they can be used safely.
The flavors of condoms have evolved, from the simplest to some really extravagant. Almost all the brands that have flavored condoms market a very similar range of flavors, some of them being present, such as chocolate, strawberry, banana, apple, orange, pineapple, mint, coconut ... and even some more striking as a cola flavor, or flavor to chewing gum.
We can find flavors in Durex condoms (Saboreame, Tropical), Control condoms (Fussion), Sico condoms (Tropical Feel). In this case, Trojan condoms do not sell flavored condoms.
Extra Insurance
If you are amateurs or want to practice anal sex, keep in mind that you must do it with a condom to avoid any infection. However, anal sex usually needs more lubrication. In addition, being narrower than vaginal sex, rubbing with the condom is stronger and could break it.
That is why extra strong or extra safe condoms have been devised, which provide extra protection and lubrication. With these condoms you can practice anal sex with total tranquility and comfort.
For those who want to have vaginal sex but still be uneasy with a normal condom, they can logically also use this type of condom if they feel more secure.
This type of condom is sold by almost all brands. We can find Durex condoms (Extra Safe), Control condoms (Control Forte), Trojan condoms (extra strong), Sico condoms (Safety).
With spermicides
Spermicides are chemical substances that kill sperm , or reduce their movement to prevent them from reaching the egg. Its function is to complement some contraceptive method to give extra protection against an unwanted pregnancy.
In the case of condoms with spermicides, condoms bring inside these substances that kill the ejaculated semen to avoid a pregnancy in the event that the condom comes out or breaks.
Although it seems a good idea, it is not a fact that is recommended, in fact it is used less and less, since the condom placed in the right way has a very high effective on its own, and spermicides can cause allergies or irritations in enough people since their chemical compounds are not tolerable all over the world.
Hypoallergenic
Hypoallergenic condoms are those intended for people allergic to latex . As we commented in the article on the condom, there are alternatives in several compounds such as polyurethane, pig guts, or polyisoprene.
The advantage of these condoms, such as polyisoprene, is that the material is extremely thin, and the feeling is practically the same as if you were not wearing any prophylactic.
The big brands have condoms of this type, being able to find condoms Durex (Real Feel), condoms Control (Latex Free), condoms Trojan (Supra Bareskin / Skin Nude), condoms Sico (Real Feel, Thermaxx Skin).
As you can see, there is a wide variety of condoms, from the simplest to the most sophisticated. Our recommendation is that you should try all of them and enjoy each one in your own way.
More than seeing them as an impediment, try to see them as a sex toy that gives you a plus in your relationships.
