Shower, bath: how to use a condom correctly?

Shower, bath: how to use a condom correctly?

To make it easier to insert a condom, whether female or male, do it before getting in the shower. This will make your procedure much easier. This will prevent an air bubble from forming in the reservoir. This bubble should be "expelled to reduce the risk of the condom tearing."

Also remember to choose the size that "fits you like a glove": even the slightest gap, "water entering the condom risks limiting adhesion to the penis" and causing the condom to slip. As for lubricant, choose a waterproof, silicone-based one.

Finally, try to remain vigilant about the condom's stay in place, and don't hesitate to check it out together verbally. Water reduces natural lubrication, as well as the condom's. As a result, the condom becomes too dry, and friction and therefore the risk of breakage increase.

At the end of intercourse, "you will have to remove the condom outside of the water to avoid any contamination," reminds David Goulois.
