Are condoms also used by women? What are the advantages and disadvantages of female condoms
Condoms are the most commonly used method of contraception. Condoms include male condoms and female condom. We usually refer to condoms as male condoms. Male condoms are common, but female condom are also common, and many people also use this method of contraception. Next, let's take a look at what kind of contraception female condom is.
What is the principle of female condoms?
In fact, the female condom and the male condom have the same contraceptive principle and appearance, which can prevent contraception and sexually transmitted diseases. However, look carefully. In addition to the different sizes of male condoms and female condom, the female condom has two additional rings. The ring at the closed end is fixed on the female's cervix, and the ring at the open end is larger, which can cover the female's private mouth and the male's root. The success rate of female contraception is the same as that of male contraception, with a success rate of about 95%, based on correct use.
Why are women not using condoms frequently?
1. It's troublesome for women to use condoms
It is convenient for men to use condoms, as long as the top air is removed, they can slowly put on the condom. However, for women, using condoms is very troublesome, and they cannot grasp the essentials during the first use, resulting in contraceptive failure. Before you decide to use the female condom, you should carefully study the instructions, master the correct wearing methods, and be skilled to ensure the success rate of contraception.
2. Price has no advantage
Compared to male condoms, female condoms do not have an advantage in terms of price, and the price is about~3 times that of male condoms, or even higher. Instead of buying some female condom that are difficult to operate and expensive, it is better to buy some male condoms that are easy to operate and have superior prices. At least men are good at using condoms.
3. Different thicknesses
The male condom is thin, the female condom is much thicker than the male condom, and the thickness of the female condom is between 0.42 mm and 0.35 mm. It also looks thin, but people who use male condoms and female condom can be distinguished. The female condom is really thick, which really affects the quality of sexual life.
4. Poor charm
Nowadays, male condoms are very common, so manufacturers have added many patterns when developing male condoms. For example, there is a helix. For example, there are ultra-thin types, such as various colors and odors, which are very interesting to use. The female condom is very single, without any other patterns, and has slightly less appeal.
