What size condom? - Sexual Health - Teens Message Board

My penis is 5" long and 4.5" wide. To me that seems small. Will a regular sized condom work? Or do I need a slimmer fit one? I definetly would be embarrased to have a girl see that I'm using a slimmer fit condom.

Condoms, like clothes need to fit really well. Your size shouldn't be an issue for condoms that are regular sized. However, different types may fit differently so I'd suggest you go purchase several brands and try them out. Its actually sorta cool to masturbate with one on and it allows you to get used to one. So, take a few for a trial run and see which one fits snug and tight, making sure that'll it'll stay in position! Good luck and I'm glad you're planning to use them.

Regular sized ones should work just fine, though you might like the fit of one of the slim types better. Don't worry about being embarassed - your erection is going to be right out there for her to see. As was suggested, try several types and see which feels the best and which stays on the best withoug being too tight. You want a firm fit, but not overly snug.

if you have 4.5" girth than a regular size should fit, just dont unroll it all the way, just enough to cover your penis, it should fit relatively nice, if not try a smaller size.
