Using a Cock Ring: Is it Safe? First things first: what exactly is a cock ring? Why is it needed? Cock rings are rings
The facts, the rules, and everything else to be thrilled about!
One of the age-old concerns we frequently hear! It’s important to revisit this topic from time to time because there is a lot of bogus information floating around online. This way, fewer people will choose to skip lubricant or, even worse, a condom because of misinformation. When both people feel safe, comfortable, and enjoy themselves, intimacy can be at its best.
Striking that all-important balance can be tricky; you may need to think outside the box – and the bed! Finding the energy to keep those juices flowing can sometimes feel like an uphill battle, and if you have been with someone for years, sex can sit in the too-hard (or not hard at all) basket for way longer than it should. A healthy marriage is one where you are getting your needs met, where you are reaching goals together and where you are an individual with a solid support team you can count on. A big part of a healthy relationship is physical intimacy, and although most people want to be hitting sex and marriage goals, some of us just need a nudge in the right direction.
YES. This was a resounding “yes,” but there are a few things to keep in mind! You should really look into the lubricant and condoms you are using in combination and find out what works and what doesn’t. Particular condoms and personal lubricants are not made to mix because of the different materials used. Most condoms are constructed of latex, which begins to break down when exposed to any oil-based product (oil-based lubrication, coconut oils, baby oils, vaseline, or body lotions, for example). This reduces the condom’s effectiveness.
These include lubricants based on oil that are intended for sexual lubrication, as was already mentioned. If you plan to use lube in tandem with a condom, make sure you always read the label. If you’re unsure, pick a lube that specifies that it is “water-based” because this lubrication will be less likely to harm your condoms. Always be aware of the equipment you are using in the bedroom because if a condom breaks, you risk becoming pregnant without intending to or contracting a sexually transmitted disease. Remember that latex-free condoms respond to oil-based lubrication like regular condoms, so avoid using them together if possible! Contrarily, polyurethane condoms can be used safely with lubricants or lotions that contain oil. To determine which lube is safe to use, always check the condom package to see what material it is composed of.
To keep your condoms from breaking when you use them with a personal lubricant, use a water-based lube with your condoms for a safe and comfortable ride for everyone! We can assure you that the pleasure train won’t stop – you’ll be happy about it, and your partner will thank you for it.
