Surprisingly female condoms are more effective than male condoms. Most people tend not to use them and go for male condoms. Here are the benefits of using female condoms:
1. Female condoms are highly effective. Female condoms are about 95% to 98% effective. Comparable to male condoms, the FC2 female condom offers a high rate of protection against unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV.
2. They are made from non-latex materials. Some people experience allergy from using latex condoms which makes sex uncomfortable. Female condoms eliminate this problem because they are made from nitrile, a material that is three times stronger, but thinner than latex.
3. Female condoms can be used with oils and water-based lubricants. You have to be careful about which lubricants you use. Oil- based lubes can wear down the latex on a male condom, making them ineffective. With female condoms, you can stick to your natural lubrication, use just the amount present in the condom, or slather up with your favorite water or oil-based lube for even more slippery fun.
4. The outer ring of the female condoms provides clitoris stimulation. Rubbing the outer ring on your clitoris during intercourse can provide some extra stimulation. And since some women can’t orgasm from vaginal intercourse alone, this really works out in your favor.
5. Their size is flexible. In female condoms, one size fits all. Their sizes are flexible to accommodate a penis of any size.
