              Types of 54mm condoms

              If you need a regular size condom, 54mm condoms could be just right. This is the average size that most men use, providing a comfortable snug that allows for a natural range of movement. Like most regular size condoms, the 54mm ones come in standard and sensation variants. Let’s have a look at the most popular.

              Standard condoms

              Sensation condoms

              Are Lelo Hex sensation condoms?

              Innovative condoms have been around for decades, but for the most part, manufacturers focused on innovating them to enhance pleasure for women. That’s how textured condoms came along, their main purpose being vaginal stimulation.

              When Lelo, a renowned sex toys brand, launched its first innovative condom, the Hex Original, many people assumed it was a sensation condom designed with female stimulation in mind.

              However, Lelo Hex condoms don’t fall in this category. At the same time, they are not exactly standard condoms either. Perhaps we would need a different classification to find a suitable place for Lelo Hex in a category.

              Technically, Lelo Hex is a standard condom with a silky smooth surface on the outside of the condom. The main difference between this condom and the plethora of condoms on the market is its honeycomb structure that adds strength despite the thin walls.

              The hexagonal edges connect with one another to create a pattern. This pattern isn’t designed to enhance pleasure, but it is placed inside the condom to increase grip and prevent the condom from moving or falling during intercourse.

              While some men claim they don’t feel the pattern at all, others do feel it. And this is where you may find different opinions. A portion of those who feel the texture not only like it but even claim it increases pleasure. Others, however, can’t stand it.

              At the end of the day, the only way to know for sure is to try. And whilst Lelo Hex isn’t sensation condoms, they could fall in that category for you. If you’re now wondering what the hype is about, check out the Lelo Hex Original condoms and find it out.

              Are Lelo Hex condoms suitable for people with latex allergies?

              No. Lelo Hex condoms may look like they are made of synthetic materials, but they are actually engineered with natural rubber latex.

              If you or your partner is allergic to latex, you must use a non-latex alternative. These include polyisoprene condoms, which are available in regular sizes, or a female condom. Female condoms are usually made of polyurethane. Both polyisoprene and polyurethane are plastics, and they can’t cause allergic reactions if you are allergic to latex.

              Why are most condoms made of latex if the material can cause allergies?

              Most condoms are made of latex because natural latex derives from rubber. The material is very resilient and elastic, allowing condom brands to make thin sheaths. Besides latex’s properties, latex allergies are rare. It is estimated that this condition affects less than 1 in 1,000 people in the UK, meaning the chances of having an allergy are very low.

              That said, people can develop a latex allergy at any age. The condition is more frequent in certain groups of people who come in contact with latex frequently – often due to their jobs. For instance, healthcare workers are more likely to develop an allergy to latex, considering that they must wear latex gloves several days a week as part of their profession.

              What can happen if I use latex condoms despite having a latex allergy?

              If you do develop a latex allergy, know that most people only experience mild symptoms. The first sign of a latex allergy is redness and itchiness on the portion of skin that came in contact with the latex – that could be the penis, vagina, or anus if you first notice a latex allergy whilst you’re using a condom.

              Systemic reactions are usually similar to hay fever and include sneezing, stuffy nose, and watery eyes. You may also notice hives on skin areas that weren’t in contact with the condom, and you could also develop wheezing, chest tightness, and difficulty breathing. These symptoms typically begin within minutes after exposure to latex.

              In severe cases, latex allergy can lead to anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis is a severe and potentially life-threatening reaction. Besides breathing difficulties, it often manifests with faster heartbeats, confusion, anxiety, and even collapsing and losing consciousness.

              Both men and women can develop a latex allergy and present symptoms during or after using a condom. However, women are more likely to develop moderate and severe reactions. This is because the vagina’s mucus membranes make it easier for latex proteins to enter the body compared to the skin on a man’s penis.

              So, if you or your partner is allergic to latex, it is essential to use a non-latex condom to prevent side effects.

              Are there any 54mm delay condoms?

              While there are no delay condoms in this size range, you have alternatives. Most delay condoms have a nominal width of 53mm. Considering that snugger condoms can help you reduce the sensation intensity and increase endurance, you could simply use those.

              If you don’t want to use a size smaller than 54mm, you can use cooling condoms. EXS Cooling condoms are an example of products you could use.

              Whilst these condoms aren’t designed to delay ejaculation, the cooling effect feels like receiving oral sex after your partner has brushed their teeth, the tingling sensation helping prolong endurance.

              Alternatively, you can use delay lubricant or delay wipes. Delay wipes and delay lubricants are made with the same substances you may find in delay condoms. Depending on the brand, you may find wipes or lube containing clove oil, lidocaine 1%, or benzocaine 5%. The former is a natural anaesthetic, while the latter two are synthetic anaesthetics. All three substances have a numbing effect, helping you delay ejaculation.

              To use delay wipes, simply rub the head of your penis with a wipe around 5-10 minutes before sex, then put on the condom. Your penis should be fully erect when applying the numbing agent.

              If you want to use delay lubricant, you can either rub a few drops on your penis head before rolling on the condom or add a few drops inside the condom and rub it on once the condom is on. You should still apply it to your fully erect penis for a few minutes before putting on the condom.

              Are condoms compatible with warming or cooling lubricants?

              Yes. All condoms are compatible with warming or cooling effect lubricants, as long as the lubricant is water-based or silicone-based. Natural latex and polyisoprene condoms can be damaged by oil and petroleum products, including olive oil, body or massage oils, body creams, and Vaseline. For this reason, you should never use anything other than condom-friendly intimate lubricant to add moisture to your intimate bits when using condoms.
