I was wondering: currently I'm only using condoms as birth control, because I am scared of using hormone pills bc I have a few issues with my breasts (benign tumors that are potentially susceptible to hormones. I really don't want to trigger something there and I've been told hormonal pills can do that).
So my question is on correct condom usage. My boyfriend and I always follow the instructions given here: we use it from start to finish, roll it all the way down, check the expiration date, leave room at the tip, and he even withdraws before ejaculating as an extra precaution, so he always ejaculates outside, condom still on.
However, I noticed that even if the condom fits him perfectly when we put it on, it tends to slightly roll away from the base of the shaft during intercourse. It does NOT ever slip off, but it moves a little bit away from the base (like 1/2 inches). Nothing seems to "escape" the condom because of that, and the semen seems to stay on the reservoir tip (sometimes there's liquid at the base of his shaft, but we think it's me+the lubricant, because as I already mentioned he always ejaculates outside). The condoms always look like they fit fine, so we just adjust them when we switch positions, but this happens almost all the time and I can't understand if it's normal or if it constitutes a user error that makes the condoms not effective
If this is wrong, what could it be? Did we get the wrong size or applied it in the wrong way?
Thank you so so much in advance for your reply!
