Condom Problem
 

hey guys i would appreciate any advice you could give me on this. My problem is that the condom always seems to get wierd after about 10 minutes into the session. All i can describe it as is that my foreskin goes back up towards the head which causes me to feel nothing and for the condom to split. I have tried every sort of condom and every size and still the same result. For example once we used 7 condoms in 1 session as it kept happening, i do not know what to do anymore as my penis looks fine; no excessive foreskin things like that. My penis is 7.5 inches if that helps anything i just dont know what to do and its really depressing me lol.

thanks

Welcome to the TFP.
I'm not sure what to tell you about your problem, you said you've tried every kind... So the problem must lie with how you're using it, not the condom itself. Are you wearing it the right way? are you rolling it down properly? make sure you don't leave any air by progressively pushing it down as you rolling the rubber down.

OK - this looks like my specialty (for those that don't know, I work for a condom company).

I'd recommend using a condom with a flared end (rather than parallel sides). Also add a very small amount of water based lubricant - ensure it states "condom safe" on the label INSIDE the condom.

This should ( A ) provide enough room for the foreskin to move, and ( B ) prevent the condom getting caught under the skin.

Hope that helps.

thanks for the replies guys, what types of condoms do flared ends by the way? Usually i get them from the family planning clinic and they give me about 20. I dont really understand what you mean by parrallel sides on the condom sorry could yo go more into detail on that please. Im really grateful about this and if any of this solves my problem i will give you all a cyber kiss lol

thanks

go to condomania.com and look at the pictures of condoms then you can go to the store and buy em or order them off the web... but some people say it might be damaging if the condoms are stuck in a hot truck for an extended period while being shipped... but I figure their shipped to walmart or whatever store in trucks so I dont think it makes much difference.

thanks for the diagrams really helpful... does anyone know what makes in England they do for flared effects?

What brand do they give you at family planning?

hey guys sorry about the wait of me answering, in response to your question Daniel they are Pasante Healthcare condoms. I might have to go to my doctor im just a bit embarassed lol, i feel like im the only person this is happening to :|

Pasante Regular and Naturelle are shaped (see their website: http://www.pasante.com/choosing.html), so should already have that covered.

Get yourself some lubricant (they have some on the website - try asking at the FP clinic) and you should find it all works a bit better. :thumbsup:

go to the doctor? for condoms?

just buy a couple different of the one or two condom packages and try em out, and once you find some you like just buy the "family" size boxes...

and unless your gonna fix this problem by getting circumsized I dont think there is much need to go to the doctors... unless I'm completely missing something...

Strider - in the UK over 2/3 of all condoms are given away by NHS clinics of one sort or another, or charities - so talking to the doctor/nurse that gives them to you is not that far-fetched.

oh ok... Learn something new every day!

thanks for all the advice guys. So i was thinking that the way i put the condom on is wrong or something i don't know. Usually i pul back my foreskin then roll on the condom, is this the right thing to do? replies always appreciated thanks :)

ok so i have an update....my friend said to me its the positions that my girlfriend and i use? In anyones opinion would that have an affect of it breaking in any way? thanks

Maybe you should try the female condom.

How much lubrication is there (inside of her and inside of the condom)? And how tight or loose fitting is the condom on you? Have you tried using both types of condoms pictured above? Have you tried using a different brand?

It does sound like you are putting it on correctly.

Maybe you could try masterbating with one on to see what happens.

Mate, you said you've tried almost every type of condom there is but you're too embarrassed to talk to your doc about it? Take 10 bucks out of your pocket or however much it is (a 10 should cover it), travel down to your local phamacist, goto the family planning section, look at the different types of 'doms there, pick up a few, look on the back, usually they have a diagram on the back depicting what they are, size and shape and what not.

Get back to us :thumbsup:
