Every now and then on TV messages you hear of condoms being almost the safest way to have s*x. Condoms is, as you already know, one of the most important forms of birth control out there, because not only do they prevent an unwanted pregnancy but they also prevent STDs and STIS. However, there are so many things many of you might not know about it. Curious???
Then see these 6 interesting facts about condoms , which INFORMATION NIGERIA has put together….
You Should Never Keep Condoms In Your Pocket; A lot of people really do this because they seem to think condoms are indestructible, and so they don’t give a second thought to where they keep them. The truth is condoms can rip or tear easily. Even in the packaging, sometimes that little rip can be so small that you don’t even notice it (but sperm will!). Between sitting down, moving around, and the fabric moving against your body, the friction is enough to wear through the packaging and get to the condom, especially if it’s on the older side. You’re better off keeping your condom in a drawer or a small compartment in a handbag where they won’t constantly be rubbing against something.
Some Do Not Protect Against All STDs: Although condoms are almost 100 percent effective in protecting against most STDS, they aren’t 100 percent – and that means they don’t protect against everything. They protect against the STDs that are transmitted by contact of private part fluid between two partners. They are not great protection against herpes – you can still get herpes from someone even if you’re wearing a condom.
Condoms Can Take Away Your Natural Lubrication: If you’ve ever noticed that when using a condom during s*x, your v**ina quickly dries up, that’s totally normal. Both latex and non-latex condoms can cause vaginal dryness, making it uncomfortable to have s*x. If you don’t want to use a chemical filled lube, but your v**ina gets dry when using a condom, try using a safer lubrication such as coconut oil. A little coconut oil can be used on the outside of a condom or inside your v**ina for easy insertion of the man-hood.
Condoms Have An Expiration Date: Just like your favourite snack and anything else, condoms have an expiration date. Although condoms have a shelf life of about four to five years, stores that sell them don’t necessarily pay attention to exactly when they expire, so it’s important that you do. If you’re trying to use a condom that has expired, it begins to lose its strength and flexibility, and is more likely to break. Condoms can also lose their effectiveness over time, making you susceptible to STDs or the chance of pregnancy. Pay attention to the date on the box and throw out and replace old condoms.
Talc Is A Dangerous Ingredient In Condoms For Women: Have you ever opened a condom and noticed a small dust of powder come out? That powder is talc, a dangerous ingredient some manufacturers use in the production of condoms. Particles of talc powder in latex condoms can enter a girl’s body during s*x and irritate tissues, potentially causing infertility (not able to have a baby), and cancer. To reduce these risks of infertility and potential cancer, use non-latex condoms when having s*x.
Spermicide Condoms Can Cause Irritation: Although condoms are 97 percent effective in protecting you against pregnancy and most STDs, they can still cause you some problems. Spermicide is an ingredient found in some condoms that kills sperm and adds lubrication. Spermicide contains the chemical, nonoxynol-9 which can cause irritation, itching or burning for both the male and female. N-9 may cause women to experience urinary tract infections, yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis after using condoms containing this ingredient.

We hope you learned a thing or two??
