Now before you scroll away because you think wearing a condom totally sucks, it’s only probably because you’ve been wearing all the wrong ones. I know, it’s a hard pill to swallow, but it’s true! Not all condoms are made the same.
Yes, we’ve all been that guy who finished way too early. You’re met with a disappointed “..is that it?”. You’re already slipping into a sex coma while your girl’s left annoyed and dissatisfied.

FAQ
1. How do condoms help in prolonging the duration of sex?
A common cause for premature ejaculation is hypersensitivity. Hence, wearing a condom helps reduce that sensitivity and provide you an extended session of pleasure. The thicker the condom, the stronger the dulling of the sensitivity.
However, it does depend on you and your lover’s level of comfort, sometimes if the condom is too thick, it could remove sensation completely and be quite painful for your lady. It’s important to find out what condom is comfortable for not only you, but your partner as well. Additionally, there are extended pleasure condoms that contain in-built delay lubricants in its inner lining to further desensitise the sensations. For example, most of the condoms shortlisted in this article come with a delay lubricant.
2. When should I start wearing the delay condom for it to be effective?
As not all condoms are made the same, it depends on the brand. For example, the Erotim Long Love Condoms are lined with a Benzocaine paste which will only be activated by body temperature in order to turn to liquid lube. This takes at least three minutes to take effect.
Be sure to read the instructions of the condom to be extra sure on its effectiveness and if it requires time to be activated. It may be annoying to be fumbling through the package in the middle of a steamy session, so we highly advise to check it when you’re purchasing one.
3. What are delay lubricants? Are they safe?
Based on our article, you might have noticed two prominent delay lubricant names: Lidocaine and Benzocaine. Lidocaine isn’t a very common delay lubricant to use due to recent studies showing that it is potentially corrosive to the latex of the condoms and can increase the risk of it breaking mid-action.
Benzocaine has taken over as the most common solution and is typically known as a local anesthetic to provide numbing. If you tend to have reactions due to skin sensitivity, you may experience side effects like stinging, burning, itchiness, tenderness or flaking. However, most condoms only use less than 5% of this ingredient, so don’t worry about facing terrible side effects.
If you are still skeptical about these ingredients, there are more condoms in the market that only use natural ingredients for climax control, such as the KamaSutra and Glyde condoms in this article.
4. Can I take additional supplements to prolong the duration of sex?
There are definitely oral supplements available over the counter to help prevent premature ejaculation. There are also delay sprays available, but it’s safe to just use one delay product at a time to prevent the possibility of over-extended sensitivity loss and limp dick.
In the long run, you could also start including foods that are rich in zinc and magnesium to help overcome premature ejaculation.
5. What is the best long-lasting condom?
Contrary to popular belief, there is no perfect condom. It depends on the individual — what works for your buddy may not work for you. So, it’s important to always be open to trying out condoms until you find one that’s perfect for you. Hopefully, one of them is in this article.
6. Can I use the same condom for intercourse and for BJs?
Hygiene-wise, it’s a no. Technically, unprotected oral sex can cause STI transmissions. It’s a definite rule of thumb to change condoms per use — so even when you’re switching holes, switch the glove too. That being said, change a condom every time you finish in one. If you’re going for rounds in the same condom, you only put yourself in risk of condom breakage and also, that’s gross, bro.
Conclusion
To wrap it up, wrap it up! There’s nothing to be ashamed of in practising safe sex, and at the end of the day, why turn down an opportunity to have a longer session of just bonking each other? Lasting longer also means you get to try out more things in the sexy department.
So release all your past inhibitions about condoms — you’re doing the right thing by being responsible and also earning yourself a couple more passionate moments and extended pleasure. We hope this article has helped you in deciding on the best condom to get for yourself. You’re welcum.
