Talking about condoms is the most common thing in the world. In the pharmacies they exhibit them in a prominent place. And it could not be another way. By now condoms must have saved millions of human lives! Diligent employees illustrate the knights about the benefits and miracles that these gadgets are capable of. In Peru they are used more and more, although not as often as necessary to stop the increase in sexually transmitted infections. After a tour of the main distributors of condoms, here is a detailed list of its different versions. Durex, Piel, OK, Vladi, Gents and Preventor are just some of the almost twenty brands of condoms sold in Peru. Finding the right condom can be more important and pleasurable than you think. This guide will help you make such a difficult decision in an informed manner .

Delaying effect

To delay the male climax, condoms with benzocaine (anesthesia) were manufactured at the inner tip of the condom. This type of condoms is highly valued by Peruvians. The leader in sales of the Durex brand in Peru is the model with retardant. According to the distributor, that does not mean, necessarily, that most Peruvians have premature ejaculation problems, but simply want to prolong the enjoyment of the relationship before ejaculating. A spokesman for the Vladi condom line does not think so, who says that more than 40% of the sexually active male population at some point has suffered from premature ejaculation, a finding that has led them to place retardant in their three presentations. The benzocaína, they assure, allows to prolong the sexual act in a 35%.



Textured

You will find them in all brands and in two presentations. The (bad) calls with spurs (actually they are tiny bumps on the surface of the condom, technically known as "points") and those that have hoops around. Both have been designed so that whoever uses them can provide more stimulation and pleasure to their partner during the penetration. Durex offers the points with the name "Intense Sensation", Ok presents them with "Tachones" and the Gents and Preventor brands call them dotted which in English means 'dotted'. All these bring small dots in relief on the surface of the condom.

The rings on the outer surface of the condom go from end to end. Durex calls this model the "Ultra Sensitive", Vladi calls it "striated" (remember that the latter brand also comes with the retardant effect). OK says "striped" and Skin offers it as "rings", Gents and Preventor bet on the denomination in English and present them as ribbed.

Colors and flavors

Thinking about satisfying the needs of the youth market, some brands offer condoms with different colors, flavors and aromas. They are ideal for fellatio (oral sex), bringing novelty and fun to the experience. Durex offers them with flavors of orange, strawberry and banana and presents them as Tropical; Preventor calls them "Tutti Frutti" and they taste like strawberry, banana and coconut. The most innovative of all is offered by the OK brand, with a chocolate flavor.

Thickness and size

For men to enjoy more condoms are thinner than regular (all distributors say that this feature does not diminish safety). The average thickness of a condom is 0.065mm, the thin ones have an approximate thickness of 0.050mm. Durex and Skin offer it as "Sensitive", Gents as "Ultra Thin" and Vladi as "Nature" (remember once again that this brand additionally brings retardant).

At the other end is the thicker condom for greater protection. In Peru, only the Durex brand sells it and calls it "Extra Safe". It is 20% thicker (approximately 0.080 mm) and is usually used by people who have a genital infection or those who are afraid of catching any disease. They are also used for anal penetrations, although in the distributor they explain that they were not specially designed for that.

Thinking about the comfort of man, Durex created the Comfort model, which offers longer and longer condoms than regular ones. Most condoms have an average width of 5.2 cm and a length of 17.8 cm, the Durex Comfort has a width of 6.3 cm and a length of 20.5 cm.

Regular

The simple presentations of the condom are completely smooth and without any additional treatment, which could, in some cases, cause irritation. Skin, Preventor and Vladi present this variety of condoms as "classics" (once again, remember that Vladi always brings retardant), Durex calls it "Natural" and Gents offers it as plain, which means smooth. In addition, Durex has a new model called "Fire" that comes with internal and external thermal lubricant. It is a lubricant that produces a warmth in men and women, decreasing the feeling that the condom is being used and stimulating the sexual experience.

Female condom

It is made of polyurethane (it is more resistant than latex, material from which male condoms are made). It has two rings, one closed that is placed inside the vagina and another open that covers part of the vaginal lips. The problem is that it is more expensive than the masculine ones and to make it massive it will require a lot of promotion, so, for the moment, you can only find them in the sex shops.

About the brands

Durex has the largest variety of condoms in the Peruvian market. It offers eleven presentations. All their condoms have easy on technology, consisting of a more comfortable anatomical shape on the part of the glans that provides greater comfort. These condoms are manufactured in India and Thailand and sold in boxes of three units at an average price of six soles (it is referential, it can vary a bit depending on the establishment). On the other hand, thinking about sexual well-being, Durex has a line of water-based lubricants and vibrating rings. The vibrating ring is a sex toy that is placed at the base of the penis to produce greater pleasure in both men and women.

The Piel and OK brands are from Apropo, an NGO that works on sexuality and reproductive health issues. Since they do not seek to profit through the marketing of condoms but, on the contrary, make them accessible, the three-unit box borders the three suns. Profit is invested in educational activities and in maintaining social programs. Both brands are Peruvian but condoms are ordered from factories installed in Thailand.

The Vladi brand condoms are manufactured in Spain and have the approval of the demanding quality standards of the European Union. Although the condom box only contains two units and its price is six soles on average, Vladi has a good position within the public of the capital. The box of condoms Preventor (with three units) costs four soles and the Gents (also with three units) are sold for two soles. They are cheap, they are safe and you do not have pleasure. You have no excuse. Use them.

Knocking down myths

Are condoms frequently broken?

DO NOT. If used correctly, condoms do not break. However, they can break if the package is opened with the teeth or if it is in poor condition, that is, the package is broken, expired, has been exposed to the sun or when using lubricants based on oil or petroleum jelly.

Is sex less enjoyable when you use a condom?

DO NOT. The use of condoms does not affect sexual pleasure. This happens in people who have that idea and do not accept the use of condoms. Many couples enjoy their sexual intercourse to the maximum because they feel calm and know that they are protected from an unwanted pregnancy, as well as from contracting an STI or the AIDS virus.

Does HIV pass through the condom?

DO NOT. The HIV virus can not pass through a latex condom. These have a double layer that prevents the passage of any molecule, including the air; thus less can the AIDS virus, which is 1,200 times larger than the air molecule.

Does condom use correct premature ejaculation and improve sexual relationships?

YES. The use of the condom, in certain cases, helps those who suffer from premature ejaculation by allowing the erection to stay longer, thus delaying ejaculation. The use of the condom can improve sexual relations because you can put the condom on the couple as part of the sexual game before penetration, or you could also try the different types of condoms sold in the market.

Only men who have sex with men or sex workers can get HIV and AIDS?

DO NOT. Any relationship that you have without protection can infect an STI. However, there are some risky behaviors, especially when you do not use condoms, which can increase the chances of getting an STI, such as having several sexual partners or relationships with sex workers.

Is a woman "player" or "easy" to use or ask to use a condom?

DO NOT. On the contrary, he is assuming his sexuality responsibly. Relating the condom to prostitution, occasional sexual relations and infidelity has meant that a large number of people and couples still do not decide to use it, and because they are not protected, they run the risk of contracting an STI or HIV.

Is it safer to use two condoms?

DO NOT. Using two condoms is no safer because the friction between the two condoms can make them easier to break; which increases the risk of an unwanted pregnancy or the transmission of an STI or HIV.

When buying a condom remember:

• You must buy them in guarantee sites: pharmacies, drugstores, vending machines, mini-markets, supermarkets or warehouses.

• Must have health registration, date of manufacture and expiration.

• Check that the envelope is not damaged. Before opening it you should feel an air cushion, if you do not feel discard it and use another one.

• Store it in cool places, away from sunlight and heat. Never keep it in your wallet, in your back pocket, or in the glove compartment of your car.

• Do not inflate, stretch, unwind or wash. It is only used once.

• If you want more lubrication use only water-based lubricants, any other product can damage the condom and break it.

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)
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.

They are made for the penis and often do not take into account that the vagina is just as in contact with them. Condoms, generally, are designed thinking about the needs of the penis, as they surround it. But do they take into account the tastes and needs of women? Which ones adapt better to what each vagina needs?

We asked the sexologist of Durex Central America, Marianela Arias Lamicq, and we explained below how to choose -in pairs- a condom that works for their needs.

With stitches and streaks

The textures in the condoms are made for a greater enjoyment of the woman. The stitches, stretch marks or lines in this type of condom are designed so that the vagina perceives different sensations. Some people do not notice the difference at the time of penetration, but its design is designed to provide additional stimulation.

Full of surprises

If you are a curious girl for whom the element of surprise is paramount, you should know that in the market there are boxes with "surprise" condoms. These are varied packages with different types of condoms. In the same package there can be prophylactic flavors, textured, extra thin, retardant, and many others.

The feminine

It is a thin and more loose case. It covers the vagina and is as safe as the male condom. It is said that it does not diminish both the sensation and the male condom and, in addition, it is controlled by the woman, which should provide greater comfort and pleasure. One of the advantages is that it can be inserted before the sexual act and in this way it does not interrupt the environment. However, from the aesthetic point of view it is not so pleasing to the eye and, according to some blogs of experiences, it can end up feeling like a little bag inside the vagina.

Pleasure that goes on

In the market there are many condoms with retardant gels whose objective is to prolong the pleasure. If the longer erection time is synonymous with more pleasure for you, this is undoubtedly the best option. The retardant delays ejaculation and the premise is to align sensations and, if possible, enjoy simultaneous orgasms.

Playful

A penis that shines in the dark or in a phosphorescent wrap can be fun to laugh and enjoy together. In sex shops there are condoms with different designs and colors that are made to play as a couple, have fun and try new things.

In this case, the sexologist Arias reminds us that this type of condom is used only for foreplay and it is better not to trust because it is not sure that they meet the quality standards at the time of penetration. In addition, the dyes can become harmful when they come into contact with the vagina. Arias recommends changing condoms for one that meets protection standards before penetration.

Extra insurance

If the most important thing for you is the prevention of pregnancy, several brands have extra safe options, manufactured with a greater thickness than traditional, without sacrificing comfort or ergonomics. It is important to talk as a couple if you want to opt for this type of condom because it is possible that slightly decreases sensitivity to having a thicker latex.

Edible or flavors

Of guacamole, of bacon, of pizza, of cotton candy ... Condoms are of all flavors. Some, even, are made with edible materials completely, which adds an original touch to the previous game. It is easy to find these in sex shops or through internet sites. They are ideal for oral sex because they offer an extra touch of the flavor of your preference. Like condoms of colors, it is not recommended to use them for penetration as some may not be 100% safe.

Cold or hot


If you are interested in playing with temperatures to experience different sensations, condoms of extensive pleasure that generate sensations of heat or cold are an interesting option.

The human body maintains an average temperature of 37 degrees centigrade. In cavities as the vagina increases slightly. If we experience sexual arousal, this temperature increases even more. The penis, on the other hand, maintains an ambient temperature, so with penetration part of the excitement is the increase in temperature that is felt when coming into contact with the vagina.

There are condoms that encourage even more heat, or cold, because the body perceives an exacerbation effect when there are various points of heat and cold stimulation throughout the skin.

Closer

If you prefer to pretend not to use a condom at all, with the feeling of being "skin to skin", there are ultra thin condoms that allow you to feel your partner more during penetration. They are just as safe as condoms of conventional thickness because brands carry out studies to ensure that this is the case. Both the penis and the vagina will have greater sensitivity because the temperature and contact are easier to perceive.

What are the disadvantages of condoms?

For condoms to work well, you must use them correctly, all the time, every time you have sex, and it may take some time to get used to.

You should use a condom every time you have sex.

For condoms to be effective, you must use a new one correctly every time you have sex. This means putting on a condom before there is any skin-to-skin genital contact and keeping it on until you finish having sex. If you only use condoms from time to time or if you put it in the middle of the sexual relationship, it will not work so well. Having a supply of condoms and making sure you are close before entering the action can help you remember to use them.

  •     Practice makes a master. The more comfortable and safe you feel when using a condom, the easier it will be to place it in the intensity of the moment.
