How to Know if You Need a Large Size Condom


7 minute read

Has this ever happened to you?

You open a fresh pack of condoms... ready to get down with someone special. But when you roll one on, something doesn’t feel right.

Whether it’s too tight, too loose, or just plain uncomfortable, it’s clear that you and your condom are not getting along.

This happens to some guys A LOT. It can be easy for them to assume that condoms are naturally uncomfortable.

But the truth is, these guys are wearing the wrong size condom, and they likely need a bigger fit. So, why haven’t they snagged a box of Magnums yet?

Because many men who need a large condom don’t know it.

Why? Because being a “bigger guy” doesn’t mean having a porno dick. There is a considerable size range among bigger guys, so finding the right condom can be challenging.

Don’t worry; the brains at Condomania have you covered.

Below, we’ll tell you how to know if you need to try a bigger condom size, and we’ll recommend some of the most popular large-size condoms you can buy online right now.

Let’s do this.

Read First: What 99% of Guys Don’t Know About Large Size Condoms.

What 99% of guys need to know is this:

Large-size condoms are not made for gargantuan porno dicks. They’re made for guys who are either longer or girthier than average (or both).

That means that you can actually be SHORTER than average and still need a large-size condom if you’re exceptionally girthy.

At the same time, men who are slightly longer than average might fare better with a standard size condom if they have average girth.

It can be hard to determine your condom size just by ogling your junk and choosing a box of rubbers off the shelf.

In fact, most men (about 80%) wear the wrong condom size—and this is especially true for larger guys.

Wearing the wrong condom size dramatically increases the risk of pregnancy and STI transmission.

It makes sex worse for you and your partner (and you better believe your partner can tell when you run onto the court wearing the wrong “shoe” size).

So how do you know if you need a bigger condom? The best way is to measure your manhood and find a condom that fits your stats. You can learn how to do that in about 60 seconds right here.

Some easy-to-recognize signs that you might need to switch to a larger condom size. We’ll cover them at length now.

Signs You Need a Large Size Condom

Do you hate condoms? You likely find condoms uncomfortable because you’re wearing the wrong size. You’d hate shoes too if you’d been wearing a few sizes too small for your entire life.

You may need a larger size condom if you’ve had any of these issues:

Condoms are uncomfortable

This is the most obvious sign that you need a different condom size. You should barely be able to feel a condom when it’s on. If it’s uncomfortable, try a larger size.

Condoms are hard to put on

If the condom doesn’t roll on with ease. It shouldn’t take any effort to roll a condom over your shaft, and you should be able to pinch the reservoir tip at the head.

Condoms don’t stay rolled down to the base of your shaft

Do condoms partially unroll from the base of your shaft? This is a sign that you’re a girthier guy who needs a wider condom.

Condoms feel too tight

A condom shouldn't feel like you're putting your dick in a vice. It should be flush with your skin but not restrictive. If a condom feels tight, it means it’s too small.

Condoms cause you to lose your erection or feel “numb” down there

Condoms that are too tight can cause you to feel less of your partner. This makes sex less enjoyable, but it can also cause you to lose your erection when it matters most.

Condoms often slip off during sex

A rogue condom can be a sign that your rubber is too small. If it starts to roll up, your partner's grip can easily pull it off without you knowing, putting you on the expressway to baby town.

Is Condom Size Really Important?

Yes. There’s no doubt that wearing the right condom size is CRITICAL for having pleasurable and safe sex.

First of all, wearing the wrong size condom dramatically increases the chances of pregnancy and STI transmission.

Condoms have a 98% success rate overall, but the FDA makes it very clear that this only applies IF you wear the right condom size AND if you use the condom correctly.

Sadly, about 80% of men don’t wear the right size, meaning you could be closer to a doctor’s appointment or a baby shower than you know.

Secondly, wearing the wrong-sized condom makes you seem like a noob in bed.

Your partner hates it when you have to stop to readjust the condom in the heat of the moment—or when you have to stop altogether because you’ve gone soft.

If your condom is too small, it can seriously limit your mobility in the sack and your ability to thrust deeper and faster.

The good news? Upgrading your game in bed is as easy as switching to a large-size condom that fits just right.
