Breaking..condoms

---

Oh, another thing that will make them break is if you use oil with them. Never use Vaseline or petroleum jelly or vegetable oil or butter with them - only water-based lubricants like KY jelly or Astroglide.

thank u! u are the man!Ineligble!

The most common causes of condoms breaking are:- Wrong size: too small or too large- Old condoms: check the expiration date on the condom wrapper! Latex does get brittle with age.- Using oil based lube with latex condoms such as Vaseline, baby oil, etc.- Using the same condom more than once- Using two condoms at the same time (some guys put 2 condoms on so they can last longer, but this can damage the condoms)- Not enough lubricationIn reply to:what are the sizes of the condoms aswell? are they like small, medium, large? or one size fits all.. im about 5inches 5.5+ on a good day As mentioned by others earlier, its the girth or thickness of your penis that matters for condom size. Length doesn't matter at all. All condoms are long enough for even the longest penis. Condom sizes have different marketing names, so you won't find "small medium or large". The majority of condoms out there are regular size. Small condoms are frequently called "form fitting" or "contoured" or "slim fit". Large condoms are often called "Magnums". Here is a general size guide for the different size condoms, measured in girth, or circumference around your penis at its widest point:Small (form fitting, contoured, slim fit, etc.): girth 4.5" or lessRegular: girth 4.5 to 5.5"Large (Magnum): girth more than 5.5"Regular size condoms fit at least 90% of all men just fine.

im about 5.6 to 5.7 girth can i use a regular condom?

Look right above your post... what does it say?

i just want to know if its safe to use a regular one if a large is unavailable?

It's more likely to break if it's too tight.

That's true, though a condom that's used properly shouldn't break even on a fairly thick penis - it's more that people find the pressure uncomfortable. I'd suggest to kano that he experiment with a couple of different brands to see how they fit.

Yeah, it won't be a problem to use a regular condom on a 5.6 to 5.7 inch girth. It's not going to break or anything from the size - it just may be a bit tight in terms of comfort, but its perfectly fine and safe to use.

thanks guys

what about those flavored condoms are those safe?

Yes, the flavouring is just applied to the outside of a normal condom.
