“…It was found that the ejaculation latency time was signi cantly prolonged after the use of thickened condoms in patients with premature ejaculation. 15 In a prevalence study conducted by Waldinger et al, premature ejaculation rates, IELT times and condom use were evaluated in men in the ve countries included in the study. In the study, in which approximately 500 patients were evaluated, it was determined that 29% of the patients used condoms.…”

Premature ejaculation is a common sexual dysfunction in men. Some topical anesthetic agents are used in the treatment to reduce the hypersensitivity of the glans. The number of patients in studies showing the effectiveness of topical agents is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a eutectic mixture of lidocaine and prilocaine-containing local anesthetic creams(EMLA), lidocaine spray, and benzocaine condoms on ejaculation, which are widely used in Turkey in premature ejaculation patients. Between November 2020 and December 2022, 273 male patients who were admitted to the andrology policlinic of the hospital and diagnosed with PE for life were included in the study. Age, body mass index, marriage periods, intercourse durations, relationship frequency, comorbidities, duration of intravaginal ejaculation latency time(IELT) before and 2 months after treatment and side effects of the patients after treatment were prospectively collected. Patients were divided into 3 groups. Group 1 consisted of patients using EMLA cream, respectively; group 2 consisted of patients using lidocaine spray, and group 3 consisted of patients using benzocaine condoms. 59 people in group 1, 126 in group 2, and 88 in group 3 were included in the study. Pre-treatment IELT values of Groups 1, 2, and 3 were 32.5+17.7 sec, 29.8+17.9 sec, and 30.1+13.9 s, respectively. Post-treatment IELT values were 104.5+135.81 sec, 144.1+179.8 sec, and 75.1+50.4 s, respectively. In all three groups, post-treatment IELT values were significantly higher than before treatment. Our study found that spray and EMLA cream significantly increased IELT duration compared to condoms. Although local treatments used in premature ejaculation are effective in the short term, further studies showing long-term efficacy are needed.

“…• Condoms can tear or break during intercourse and may result in an unwanted pregnancy or exposure to STIs. Some of the factors associated with condom breakage are excessive friction during sex, longer duration of intercourse, incorrect usage, using the wrong size, use of oil-based lubricants, and reuse of condoms [9,13,14]. Oil-based lubricants can impair the integrity of latex condoms [9].…”

Barrier methods of contraception prevent the exchange of bodily fluids such as semen, vaginal and anal secretions, and blood between partners during intercourse. Thus, the primary function of these methods of contraception is pregnancy prevention. Some, such as internal and external condoms, provide protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) as well. Barrier methods of contraception include condoms (external and internal), diaphragm, cervical cap, contraceptive gel, spermicide, and contraceptive sponge. Since they are non-hormonal and have no systemic effects, these are alternatives for women who cannot use hormonal contraceptives due to certain medical conditions or medications prescribed. The efficacy of these methods of contraception is contingent on their correct and consistent use. This chapter aims to discuss the various barrier methods, their usage, mechanisms of action, advantages, and disadvantages as well as the comparison of some of these methods to one another.

Introduction Many of the sexual problems of the couples that come to psychology and sexology consultations are due to erroneous beliefs surrounding the topic of sex. Beliefs that have been turned into widespread sexual myths and fallacies in society. In this study, we conducted a survey on knowledge and fallacies related to sexual intercourse with a large Spanish random sample. Our aim was to evaluate the presence of these fallacies and myths in today's modern society. Methods A total of 1162 participants of different genders (female, male, and non-binary), different sexual orientation (mostly heterosexual) and different ages (from 14 –two cases- to 64 with mean of 24.62 and SD of 8.96), answered an online questionnaire, developed ad hoc for this study, during the years 2019, 2020 and 2021. This questionnaire or survey collects the different fallacies, myths and “machismo” attitudes collected in clinical practice (psychology/sexology) that have caused couples or individuals to request professional therapeutic help, as well as knowledge related to sexual practices. Results The results show that the current level of knowledge is in general good (between 99 and 73% of adequate responses, with some exceptions mainly related to anatomy), higher among women (reaching their highest percentage of correct answers at 99%) than men (reaching their highest percentage of correct answers at 97%), and independent of age. In addition, we observe the weight and relationship that certain myths and traditional cultural fallacies have, as well as the presence of false expectations and beliefs about what the "ideal" sexual relationship should be, which are still very present in modern Spanish society, and which are responsible for the majority of clinical consultations and alleged disorders related to couples’ sexual life. Conclusions These myths, false beliefs, and unrealistic expectations, as well as the subtle attitudes of "machismo" (that people are not aware that they possess), must be combated (information, campaigns) since they are responsible for many of the apparent disorders and dysfunctions in the human sexual response (which are mostly attributed to women), and in the sexual life, in general, of couples. Policy Implications This study presents the level that these fallacies and negative attitudes are present in a large sample in Spain, and the questionnaire developed will allow evaluating the level of presence of these fallacies and negative attitudes, both in different societies/ groups and in particular individuals. Information that will be of great help to professional therapists who treat dysfunctions and sexual problems in couple/marital life, which are based on these fallacies, on attitudes of “machismo” and/or on the lack of knowledge on the one's own sex and that of their partner.
