Check your condom wrappers to make sure there is a little bit of air in the condom package before u open it. If the foil package is completely deflated, get another condom.

“A woman’s vagina is extremely sensitive, and the bacteria form that transition can cause major infection if not cleaned properly”.
Forget porn.

Use a lube that is condom-tested per ASTM condom compatibility guidelines as laid out by the FDA.
“Do not use Vaseline, baby oil, coconut or other body lotions that contain oil as lubricant”

• Try An Internal Condom
This isn’t dependent on ur Dick size and will sit inside the vagina, it can be used with any type of lube, and doesn’t ve to be removed right away.
“You can also use it for water sex, and can be inserted up to 8 hour before sex so you can still be spontaneous.”
• Take An Active Role In Making Your Sex Safer
Birth control and STI prevention isn’t just the responsibility of your lady. You can start the conversation, and you can make sure you’ve got condoms.
“There’s no need to rely on your lady to handle all the details alone”.
