How do you know what size condom to get? I think my bf is a bit on the smaller side, so I'm worried that a medium condom might come off. Can anyone help?

He should ask the pharmacist......and if he's too embarassed to ask, then it will have to be trial and error, till he figures it out.

If he's your first, then you really are not a judge of his size.

Check out condoms.com or condomania.com (one "m" or two, I don't recall). Both have comparison tools that rate various brands and models for size/fit, textures, etc.

I know that I'm not a "judge of his size". I'm not judging him at all. He told me that he didn't know whether to use a smaller or medium size so I am asking on his behalf.

Unlike buying gloves, he's not able to just try condoms on to see what fits better. The ONLY safe bet is to get either the single packets, if they even sell those anymore, of the smallest sized packages of both medium and small sizes to test 'em out at home.

Without question, the extra expense is obviously worth it in this situation. Only thing I can think of right now. Hope that really helps.
