The Negatives of The Male Condom
For some, the careful application of condoms can lead to a loss of spontaneity within the sexual experience. In some instances, men may also suffer a loss of erection due to the application of the condom. Additionally, while some men enjoy the delay in ejaculation that condom use can create, it has also been criticized for reducing the levels of sensation experienced through the penis and with it male sexual enjoyment. Condoms also carry a slightly increased risk of contraceptive failure for users, which while remote, is higher than that experienced with other forms of contraception. Condoms which boast unique features designed to heighten the sexual experience while attractive to consumers should also be advised against, as in many instances these features can come at the cost of the contraceptives levels of effectiveness.
