Condom

Condoms are barrier-type devices, primarily used to ensure safer intercourse and to prevent unwanted pregnancies. They also serve an important role in protecting against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), by reducing the direct contact and exchange of body fluids between partners. Made predominantly from latex or polyurethane materials, condoms are designed to be both strong and thin, which maintains sensitivity while providing reliable protection. For maximum effectiveness, it is essential to choose the right condom size and follow proper usage guidelines, which usually include checking the expiry date and using suitable lubricants, if needed. In addition to their primary function, condoms can be found in various textures, flavors, and colors, which are designed with the aim of enhancing sexual experiences for both partners.
