Is it normal that trojan condoms are always breaking?

I think that Trojans have broken on us almost five times already. Each time we discovered this before he came inside me, except once. Fortunately this didn't result in any pregnancy because we had the morning after pill for such an occurrence. What brands are better? Do Trojans fail on anyone else as much?

    they are TROJANS. Read up on the trojan horse...loaded with greek soldiers...

    Here it's another trojan container, loaded with his little soldiers! When they are in a good position, they unload and try to accomplish their objective.

    I have had the guys use Durex all my live(yeah, i'm a responsible girl and bring my own condoms, because surprisingly many guys "don't have one"), only broke twice, one time it was wrong size(and definitely so), and the other time anal without extra lube.

    a few tips for condoms:

    1) use the right size. this will help keep the condom intact

    2) lubricate the inside a little - this will keep him from getting chaffed and can help reduce stress on the condom (don't use too much though cos that too can lead to issues)

    3) check the expiration date

    4) also be sure he leaves room at the tip - if it's on completely snug it will add to the stress on the condom.

    if you do all of that and it still breaks, check the lot number on the box, and contact the company. could be a bad lot. try another box - with a different lot number on it, or try another brand.

    What kind of shop do you buy them from? I'm just asking because there was something on TV the other night about all kinds of fake products entering the market, from aspirin and toothpaste to condoms. So maybe they weren't Trojans after all...

    • Really? That's pretty wild, I never heard about that. I've always just bought them from Walgreens and RiteAid.

        Ok, that's probably alright then. I tend to use Durex, so don't know much about Trojans at all. Just thought it would be worth eliminating the possibility of them being counterfeits.

    That's weird. I never had a problem except for the extra thin ones. It feels like nothing is there because it breaks! Maybe he's too big for the ones you're buying? Magnums have never broke on me.
