What is a female condom?
Female condoms are not common in life, but mostly male condoms in daily life, and their use methods are quite different.
Female condom is a soft, transparent and durable sheath made of special polyurethane material. Its length is about17cm, its thickness is 0.42-0.53mm, and its maximum diameter is 7.8cm.. It can effectively prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases (including AIDS) while contraception. When used, it will always be placed outside the vaginal opening, blocking the direct contact between the root of male penis and female vulva, which can prevent the spread of germs more effectively than male condoms.
Based on the above advantages, condoms break the male "patent". In 20 14, a female safety condom specially designed and produced for women was officially unveiled in Chengdu. It is said that the condom has filled the gap in this field in the domestic market and successfully passed the acceptance of the Ministry of Health and provincial experts.
Four Benefits of Female Condom
1, the female condom can be put into the body within 8 hours before sexual intercourse, so it will not interrupt the sexual interest during sex.
2. If the partner doesn't want to wear condoms, women can choose to use female condoms.
3. Does not contain latex that may irritate the skin.
After the partner's penis becomes soft, this condom will stay in its original place.
Is the female condom effective?
As long as it is used correctly, the contraceptive effect of female condoms is basically the same as that of male condoms.
For women who use female condoms correctly every time, only 5 out of every 100 people will get pregnant within one year.
In contrast, for women whose partners can use male condoms correctly every time, 2 out of every 65,438+000 people will get pregnant within one year.
For couples who fail to use female condoms correctly every time, about 2 1 out of every/kloc-0 women will get pregnant within one year, while for women whose partners fail to use male condoms correctly every time, about 81out of every/kloc-0 women will get pregnant within one year.
Female condoms will not eliminate the risk of sexually transmitted diseases, but can greatly reduce the prevalence rate.
Matters needing attention in using female condom
When using, just like a male condom, tear the gap in the upper right corner of the package, and be careful not to open it with scissors or a knife to avoid accidentally cutting the condom. The outer ring should cover the area around the outside of the vagina, and the inner ring should be inserted into the vagina, so that the condom can be forcibly sent to the bottom during sexual intercourse.
Choose a comfortable insertion posture, such as squatting, raising one leg, sitting or lying down. Put the condom on your index finger and push it into your vagina. During this period, make sure that the sleeve body is not twisted, and the split ring is always placed at the outer end of the vaginal opening. At this time, the female condom has been brought, and it can be used with sexual partners.
When you are ready, open the condom by hand and guide your sexual partner to enter it gently to ensure that you enter the condom correctly. After sex, please take out the condom before getting up to avoid semen backflow. When taking out, hold the split ring and rotate it, while slowly pulling out the condom.
Like male condoms, the packaging of female condoms or other paper towels should be thrown into the trash can, not into the toilet to avoid blockage. Be an omnivore in diet. Eat more than four kinds of fruits and vegetables every day, eat fish twice a week, eat various cereals and dairy products for breakfast, and supplement cellulose, folic acid, vitamin C and vitamin E appropriately.
