QUESTION: I am a sexually active, heterosexual male in a monogamous relationship. Recently, at or near climax during vaginal sex my condom slipped off completely. I didn’t know this until I reached to hold onto it as I withdrew. My girlfriend hadn’t felt it either. It was difficult to retrieve and went near her cervix. Along with condoms, we also use vaginal contraceptive foam, but considering the depth the condom had reached we opted to use Plan B emergency contraceptive as well. My question is two-fold. First, why did this happen. I produce a lot of pre-cum; does this have anything to do with it? I did not lose my erection, the width of my penis is average, and the length is above average. Second, and more importantly, how can this be prevented in the future? I am now distracted by checking the position of my condom. Should I use something like a c-ring to keep my condom in place? I’m happy with my mainstream brand and type of condom otherwise. Any information you could provide me would be most appreciated.
