A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

im just curious if its true when my friend tells me that i will enjoy sex much more when my boyfriend and i start not using condoms. we have always used condoms but in about a month i will be on birth control and eventually im sure the opportunity will arise where we want to try it without. dont get me wrong we still plan to use condoms to be extra safe against pregnancy but we are both curious about the difference of sex with vs. without a condom. any comments or things i should expect? is there anything special i need to consider or do when not using a condom...ie: lubricant or is that not necessary??

thanks

Straight Up agony auntthe only difference i can think of is you'll both feel the intesity a little more.

But saying that you need to weigh out all the pros and cons about having unprotected

for example condoms don't just protect us from pregnancies whether its 100% or not it also protect us from stds which i hope you know

my advice to you is you both should get tested beforehand just to be on the safe side

as for you other question usually you don't need lubricant you become moist naturally.

goodluck and please do think about it carefully.

Firstly, you also need to think about how condoms protect you from STI's. (not trying to say that your boyfriend has them like though..)

I notice no difference what-so-ever with or without, apart from the fact that I feel safer with knowing that its extra protection.

Even birth control isn't 100% guarenteed, so make sure you think about what you're doing before you try anything.

My boyfriend also wants to do it without a condom but i'm not on birth control. i suggest using a lumbricant with spermicde in it which i think most of them have anyway. this will help to lower the chances of pregnacy but along with the birth control it should be fine. i think as long as you don't go overboard and do it too much it will be fine. just make sure that you're really careful and think about the effects if you did get pregnant. would you keep the baby? Abortion can have very emotional effects on a woman and cause depression. Make sure you're sensible and never go without a condom unless you are using birth control as well. Also you might want to read up about birth control if you haven't already because i think you can only use it for about 4 years of your life so maybe you should think about whether you want to use it when you're older.

I hope this has helped a bit. Good luck.
