How many types of condoms are there?
The condom, also known as a condom or prophylactic, is a sheath that molds to the erect penis. It is a method of contraception and protection against sexually transmitted diseases / infections that provides a barrier between your skin and that of your partner.
There is a wide variety of condoms on the market, they vary in color, texture, size, flavors / aromas, and shapes. However, there are three basic types that differ according to the material they are made of:
Durex Extra Sensitive Condom, 24 ct (Pack of 2)
The facts of latex; based purely on the level of protection offered by latex condoms are the best because they provide the greatest protection not only to avoid pregnancy, but also are those that most protect against the spread of sexually transmitted diseases / infections (STDs / STIs) ) due to its characteristics that do not allow the passage of viruses, bacteria or parasites that transfer them.
The facts of polyurethane; The condoms made of polyurethane are thinner (thinner in thickness), more flexible and transmit heat better. But they slip during intercourse more frequently, however, the most important advantage is that, unlike latex condoms, polyurethane condoms do not produce allergic reactions. Because of this, they are sometimes the only alternative for people who are allergic to latex.
Finally, prophylactics made with lamb intestine skin; Condoms made from lamb intestines can prevent pregnancy but do not protect against STDs / STIs and ironically they can be considerably more expensive than latex or polyurethane condoms. Lamb intestine condoms are recommended for couples who are monogamous and who are sure there is no risk of a sexually transmitted disease.
To decide what type of condom you are going to choose, consider the qualities, level of protection and your sexual habits.
