Condoms differ in a number of ways. You may want to try several different brands like Durex, Lifestyles, Crown and Kimono to find the ones you’ll like best.
Condom Material:
Use latex or polyurathane condoms for protection from sexually transmitted diseases. Condoms made from natural intestines, commonly called ’skins’ or ‘lambskins’, are not recommended for disease protection.
Condom Lubrication:
Lubricated condoms are less likely to break because they are lubricated. Most condoms are lubricated with silicone lubricant.
Condom Size & Shape:
Most condoms are 7 to 7 1/2 inches (18cm to 19.5cm) long, but several brands are longer then average. While most condoms have straight sides, some have wider head room and others are form fitting. A reservoir tip also helps to prevent condoms from breaking.
Condom Smell/Taste:
Condoms may have a very strong rubber smell, or almost no smell at all. People who use condoms for oral sex usually prefer condoms without spermicide, because it has a bitter taste.
