I'm 9 days late. My cycle has been strange for several months. I'm always 5-7 days late, and this time I was 9 days late. I took a pregnancy test about 2 days ago and it was negative. When I have sex with my boyfriend, we use condoms. I don't take the pill. But why…
In terms of side effects?
I've been using the contraceptive ring for about a month and a half (for the first time), and it's also the first time I've used hormonal contraception. I feel like I've been sick almost every week since I started using the ring. In the first month, I had spotting after my period, and then I…
Hello 🥰 I'm interested in how you store your pills safely from heat? I always keep my pack(s) in the reisenthel Thermo Bag (all year round). so moisture and sun cannot affect the protection Do you have any other tips?❤️
Hello, I stopped taking the pill (Maxine 20) at the end of November. Since January 4, 2023, I've been experiencing strange pains (a burning sensation, sometimes itching, I'd say). Of course, I'm also worried that I might be pregnant now, but the test is negative. Has anyone experienced the exact same thing after stopping the…
Hi! I've been taking the mini-pill for about a year and a half, a pill that you take continuously until your period eventually stops. Now, after a year and a half, I no longer have a period, but I'm worried I might be pregnant because about a month ago I accidentally took a herbal supplement…
The nominal width, i.e. the penis circumference, is not the length.
According to ISO 4074, the condom size is given in nominal width: and this is half of the size:
nominal width = circumference / 2
At 144mm penis circumference are the 72mm:
72 = 144 / 2
As an approximate guideline: the condom should have a somewhat smaller nominal width than half the penis circumference: A condom size of 60mm is for a penis circumference of somewhat more than 12cm.

The condom should be tight, but not too tight and easy to roll.
If the condom is too large, friction is created. And friction increases the likelihood of a crack.
Different condom manufacturers have different recommendations (or size tables) that even change over time.
Many manufacturers offer size sets (1 pack with different sizes): ideal for testing.
MySize means you should try different sizes:

You should think that you get a good size chart on the AOK page. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. It’s completely wrong. This incorrect table is exactly the same for more and more websites. Even with condom providers that do not have such sizes in the range. I don’t understand. They can’t all be stupid. Or stabbed or chopped the side. Originally, this false size chart comes from “Mysize”. They want to sell more of their “oversized”.
With 13.8cm circumference you do not need 69mm condoms, even no 64mm condoms. 60mm would be suitable. Even commercially available XXL condoms (56/57mm) would probably not be a problem. From 15cm the size is suitable.
