Hello, I will ask you to post the topic because it is really very important to me. I have a serious friend of 1 year and as you can guess he lacks the platonic love I give him. The problem is that I'm terribly scared that I could get pregnant even if we use a condom. When I was 13-14 (now I'm 17) we were shown movies that could educate us about sex .. in this particular movie they said that it is possible to get pregnant if the condom is torn and the holes are so small, that it can't be seen at all, ie you don't understand that it is torn. I fall into a kind of paranoia, it will seem funny to you, but I don't like it at all. .. Help me,

I don't think you understood the movies you watched well. First, it is very rare for a condom to burst, because regardless of the brand and price, EVERY condom on our market is INDIVIDUALLY electronically tested - each condom. Condoms are so strong that they are used in Africa for ... machine belts, as a type of water bottle - they collect over 5 liters and so on. In addition, when they break, you can immediately see - the whole condom is torn. It's latex though, there can't be a small hole without tearing it up under load. It is important to look at the condom after each act and if it is cracked you will see it. There are two main reasons for a condom to burst. 1. By injury when applying - for example, if you have a manicure, let the boy put it 2. Dryness of the vagina It happens that even young, healthy and aroused girls simply do not have enough "lubricant". Especially before a cycle, but also at a time that is individual for each woman. On a hormonal basis, you may not be able to secrete enough, but also due to slight dehydration in the heat and so on. This can lead to tearing of the condom, because from a male point of view there is no lubricant. That is why I highly recommend that you have a special lubricant just in case, but it is obligatory SPECIAL for use with a condom. About Durex. Condoms are immediately torn when using grease-based lubricants, dissolved directly. Do not use things like Vaseline, Oil, lubricant creams in combination with a condom. Simple human saliva is also OK, but keep in mind that diseases are transmitted with it. If you are with a regular partner it is OK. In my opinion, your paranoia came from ignorance and a low level of sexual education. There are special, denser condoms, which you can use to feel more protected, but the thin ones are safe enough. It's just that the fat ones have two advantages - they give a feeling of calm and the boy lasts longer. There are only advantages for the woman. The Bulgarian brand Sportex has only thick condoms and a very large selection, but they are all dense. They are also decent in price. Durex have special condoms for young people with a Devil in front and a heart, they are thicker and tighter ... and even more - it is more important to look at something else. Often a condom slips out if it is not inserted properly and mostly fully developed. Make sure the condom is fully developed! And that's enough with the nonsense about holes that had never been seen ... Blah-blah-blah. These are just arguments for people who are wondering how to invent something so as not to use condoms at all, ostensibly because they were not sure. After contraception, this is the safest contraceptive after contraception, the only one that protects you from disease. Separately protect condoms from infections such as HPV. Officially, they reduce the likelihood, but you can actually save yourself from a lot of women's problems, because men carry various infections without really getting sick from them, including young boys without much sexual experience. It just does not depend on them - each body carries its own microorganisms, which for one person are OK, but for another with lower immunity are not Contraceptives are also a good choice, but not for everyone. First, if you are a smoker you can't take them Second, if you don't have regular sex it's not worth it. In addition, there may be a possibility of thrombosis, and you are so paranoid .... Continue with condoms! You will not go wrong. Everyone who has used them for contraception knows that it is a reliable method. Only those who have not used them then lie that they are pregnant because of a torn condom, because they are ashamed to admit that they are to blame for the situation. The probability of a condom bursting first is 0.3, and the probability of bursting right during ovulation is 0 !!!
Honey, the chance of a condom breaking is very, very, very small. Besides, if it's torn, you can see it when you take it off, and then you run for Escapel to the pharmacy. As for contraceptives, they are sold with a prescription, but they are not unbearably expensive. Mine are about 8 leva, but you can't choose them like that, but a doctor has to prescribe them for you. However, this is only informative. In your case, condoms really remain the best, but just calm down, the chance of getting pregnant if you used the condom correctly is absolutely 0! And you can ask at the pharmacy, because other contraceptives are sold, but certainly the condom is one of the safest, and it has a big plus, it protects against diseases and infections. So don't worry so much. And I think that you are worried because you are not yet mentally ready to have sex. When you feel ready, everything will fall into place.
Dear girls, you can't get pregnant so easily! And contraceptives are not expensive and are not taken with a prescription! They range from 10-20 BGN ... here I see ignorant paws, to have sex and constantly use ESCAPEL, not to get pregnant and it is much more expensive, its price is 30 BGN. Only if it is really over you have a chance, to get pregnant. A condom can't break easily! Educate yourself and read instead of writing funny and stupid topics.
№1 told you everything. But I'll tell you something else. The biology teacher told us that a condom is much safer not to get pregnant than contraceptives.
Tie your pipes. But I think you should be 18. It's next year.
If you are so afraid, you will never enjoy sex and you will not relax. Seriously! I have been using condoms for years and have no children or abortions. Pharmatex vaginal globules are also good. Alpha, w. 26
I do not understand what this fear is. There are so many precautions I do not see why you are afraid, and as everyone tells you the chance of a condom breaking is minimal. Contraceptives are not that expensive and you do not need a prescription from a doctor.
Number 3 is completely right and I support it with both hands. When you want to have sex, learn first in theory and then in practice! You are 17 years old and I thought that the younger generation knows more than those from the old school. As you have no money, there is a wide range of condoms for contraceptives and I confirm that there is no way to break just like that. Condoms are reliable! Your paranoia is unfounded, if you wanted to have sex and indulge in the person next to you, you would not write such a topic on the site. I advise you when you are educated in terms of sexual health, when you really want to have sex then go and do it! SEA BREATH
You use a condom and it ends up outside - so if it's broken and you haven't seen it, it's not scary.
I had a similar problem. After intercourse, I drove my boyfriend 5 times to check if he was torn. One day he took a condom and started trying to break it with his hands. He tried a lot, but still failed. I've been less worried since then.
Don't blindly believe all the movies and everything you hear. I started having sex at 18 (not that I didn't want to earlier - just then the boys started liking me) and we always used a condom. It only exploded once when I was 21, because the boy had uncut nails and stretched the condom very strangely, for reasons unknown to me. I immediately took an emergency contraceptive pill, which confused my cycle for 2-3 months. When I turned 27 and my husband and I decided to have a baby, we started doing it without a condom and got pregnant from 2-3 attempts. I gave birth to my baby and I was told at the maternity hospital that while I was breastfeeding I could not worry about having sex without a condom, because I could not get pregnant while breastfeeding. Complete nonsense that I believed. The little one was 9 months old when I first got pregnant, in which we decided to restore our sex life. So - moderate caution and do not blindly believe everything you are told. 34 year old woman
Oh God, what nonsense I only read here. What pipe ties, what contraceptives, what five levs, people. Girl, listen to me carefully, because this is very important. Contraceptives are very harmful to women and you may not even be able to get pregnant after long use. If you tie your pipes forget about children, if you take this step, there is no going back. If you decide to put on mascara when you turn 18. it is also very dangerous because there is a chance that you will get pregnant again and give birth to an injured child. You can get infected from the inside because you still have a foreign body inside. Use condoms, they do not break easily. If your partner is careful, you may not be able to use a condom, but you must be super careful. PS If you drink contraceptives there is still a small chance of getting pregnant, not everything is 100% guaranteed
