Do wearing condoms really prevent pregnancy?
Generally speaking, wearing a condom will not lead to pregnancy, because after wearing a condom, if a man's sperm cannot enter the female vagina, you cannot combine with the egg, and there is no pregnancy effect. But it should be noted that there are also some unqualified condoms. For example, condoms may rupture during use or have holes in themselves, which may lead to contraceptive failure. There are many methods of contraception, such as using an intrauterine device (IUD) to ejaculate outside the body or taking birth control pills.
Can wearing a condom really be effective in contraception?
At present, both latex and polyurethane are very thin, with good heat transfer, less prone to cracking, and no allergic reactions. It can be divided into ordinary type, thin type, and ultra-thin type.
The so-called thickness refers to the thickness of a single layer of a condom, generally ranging from 0.04 to 0.09 millimeters, with a thickness below 0.6 millimeters. A few polyurethane condoms can also be made with a thickness of 0.03 millimeters. Ultra thin condoms are suitable for mature men, who are concerned that the interlayer may affect sexual pleasure. For young people, it is difficult to control premature ejaculation. Ordinary condoms can reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, prolong sexual intercourse, and make both parties feel happier.
Many people are concerned about whether ultrasound condoms may affect safety due to being too thin. In fact, this concern is unnecessary. The quality and thickness of condoms are not necessarily related.
Generally speaking, it is safe to purchase condoms produced by legitimate manufacturers within their shelf life. Most condoms have a shelf life of 5 years, but some condoms include medications with a shelf life of 3 years. So when you buy condoms. Check if the warranty period has expired. When the condom exceeds its shelf life, stickiness and brittleness may occur, and sexual activity may rupture, leading to contraceptive failure. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully check the shelf life before purchasing condoms. When using condoms, master the correct method.
