An ill-fitting condom is not only more likely to break, but also reduces the pleasure of the couple, according to a study published this week in the medical journal British Medical Journal.

Researchers at the Kinsey Institute for Sex Research, Gender and Reproduction (U.S.) selected through newspaper ads and the blog of a brand of condoms to 436 men between 18 and 67, who answered a questionnaire on the use a condom in their last sex with women.

According to data from the survey, 45 percent of participants said that some of their relations over the past three months had used condoms that were not adjusted properly.

The difficulty in reaching orgasm for those who did not use condoms for their partners adjusted or multiplied by two when the size was not correct and the rate of those with rashes on the penis in their relationships was five times higher in those who did not use condoms of an appropriate size.

In addition, improper fit of condoms interfered when getting or maintaining an erection, breakage occurred at a frequency 2.5 times higher than when using a condom correctly and that the pair had made twice as likely to decide to remove the condom before completing intercourse.

The authors of this study, which raises the impact of ill-fitting condoms in sexual relations, acknowledged that the survey data are dependent on the veracity of the respondents’ answers.

For researchers, the possibility that the condom would reduce sexual pleasure may discourage couples from using protection, so they believe it would be “beneficial” to health authorities strive to “promote the improvement in the fit of condoms.

Study co-author, Bill Yarber, said that pornography has distorted body image, so that “no man would buy condoms labeled as small or very small”, hence the need for health authorities involved to raise awareness among couples in this regard. The new technology create crown skinless skin condoms that have high sensitive and can increase sexual pleasure in couple.
