I'm atleast 6 1/2 length wise(haven't measured length lately) and I just measured myself recently at 5 1/2 girth!! so apparently I've gotten bigger cus I use to only be 5so would trojan magnum, trojan large, or what be the right size condom for me(keep in mind I would like it maybe a little bit lose)?appreciate it thx hey I just read ur suppose to measure perpendicular to the body...well when I measured 6 1/2 inches length it wasn't perpendicular cus I have a upward curve...so would I actually be longer than 6 1/2?

What size condom would be right for me?

i heard someone say on this board that those larger condoms are more suited for 5.5+ inches. Since you are exactly that size in girth, it might fit you just perfectly. But i think as long as you are no thicker than 5.5inches you can use a regular size condom just fine plus you wont have to worry about it slipping off.

Hey bud, condoms like clothes need to fit really good, gotta have a snug fit or you may have a problem with it slipping off and that isn't good! I'd suggest that you buy several brands and types, try the Magnum and some made by different companies....try them on for size. Masturbate with them, see how they fit and feel...then make your decision based on that. Good luck!

Length doesn't matter - all condoms are longer than they need to be. It's the girth that determines which condom size you should get.
Technically, you're on the borderline between a regular condom and a magnum. Regular condoms comfortably fit girths between 4.5" and 5.5", with the average girth being just under 5". Magnum condoms comfortably fit girths over 5.5". Since your size is on the border, a regular condom will probably fit a bit snuggly, but probably won't be too tight, while a magnum condom will probably fit on the loose side, but not too loose.
Like lance said, you will need to try both to see which fits you better. I would start with the regular condom first, and see how that works for you. As long as its not so tight that it hurts you and cuts off your blood circulation (which I doubt), then I would stick with a regular size condom. If you want a loose fitting condom, go with the Magnum, but remember that a loose fitting condom can be dangerous in that it is more likely to slip off during sex, and more likely to break if there's a lot of slack in the condom. -
I had this problem recently - I always used regular ones as I didn't know they came in different sizes, but as I'm 7.5 long and 6 girth I found them too tight for me really. It wasn't till a friend of mine was talking to me about a guy she was with that I knew they came bigger.The problem here in the UK is that the Trojan Magnum isn't larger than the normal size -something to do with EU rules I think. But I did manage to get some Pasante Large and Mates Large size which works. Even got some Magnum XL which are generally loose, but when you're having one of those days when it just gets that bit bigger, they fit perfectly.It took me a while to realise I could get them on the internet though - I spent a while feeling like a small child asking in shops if they did them - a very embarassing thing to have to go through, especially if the assistant is quite young and ask another assistant for some advice. - oh the joy of internet!

Plus, Magnums are far more expensive.
-
well I don't think I was turned on as much as I would be during intercourse, lol so I'd probably pass 5.5 girth wouldn't I?
-
yeah but they length part doesnt cover me..thanks for this info im about the same girth as this dude so i guess i'd use a reg. since theyre cheaper
