Why Does The Condom Get Stuck During Intercourse?
Condom repeatedly 'stuck'.
Hello, I'm a 20 year old female with a healthy weight and BMI. No serious medical problems (past or present).
My boyfriend and I (dating for 2.5 years exclusively), try to use condoms as best we can, but there has not been one time where it hasn't gotten stuck near my cervix. I've gotten really good at getting them out, but I'm still wondering two things. One, why does it get stuck up there are the time? Two, should I still flush out myself even if removal is immediate?
Thank you.

Condom gets stuck inside the vagina only if it is not worn properly.
It should be worn on errect penis only.
Before wearing, the air in the tit infront of the condom should be completely removed by pinching it and then it should be roled over the errect penis while tit still pinched.
No lubricant should be applied to penis before wearing the condom.
It is advisable to use lubricant over the condom before insertion for easy insertion. Only water-based lubricant or vaginal jellies should be used, oil-based lubricants damage the condom.
If conom has slipped inside the vagina, there is a high possibility that semen could have leaked inside the vagina. Only douching would not be effective for avoiding pregnancy. In such case post coital contraceptive pill should be taken preferably on the same day.
