Product overview
Key Features
- Natural rubber latex condom from the Indian brand Cupid, in the "Dotted" texture line, positioned as an "Extra Time" variant intended to help delay climax
- Dotted, cylindrical, transparent, straight-walled, teat-ended shape, per the retailer-sourced product description
- Pack of 12 pieces -- confirmed by Cupid Limited's own official website as one of three pack sizes (3, 12, and 20 pieces) sold in this same "Dotted Extratime" line
- Lubricated -- retailer listings describe only a "non-spermicidal lubricant" without disclosing its exact chemical composition
Benefits
- The raised dot texture is marketed for enhanced sensation for both partners
- Positioned as an "Extra Time" product intended to help delay ejaculation and prolong intercourse, though the specific mechanism/active ingredient behind this claim could not be confirmed from the manufacturer's own materials (see sourcing note)
- The 12-piece pack offers a lower per-unit cost compared to the 3-piece pack, per retailer pricing
- Individually wrapped pieces for hygiene and portability
Who Can Use This Product
- Sexually active adults seeking a barrier contraceptive and STI-risk-reduction method, with an added texture and delay-focused positioning
- Not suitable for anyone with a known latex allergy -- natural rubber latex can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals; a non-latex alternative should be used instead
- Anyone with a known sensitivity to topical anesthetics should be cautious, given that some (unconfirmed) sources describe a numbing-type ingredient in this product line -- see sourcing note
How to Use
- Check the expiry date and packaging integrity before use; do not use if the wrapper is damaged or punctured
- Open the wrapper carefully at the notch -- avoid using teeth, scissors, or sharp nails, which can tear the condom
- Pinch the tip to remove air, then unroll the condom fully onto an erect penis before any genital contact
- Use a new condom for every act of intercourse; do not reuse
Storage & Safety
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat
- Do not store in a wallet or a location subject to prolonged pressure or heat, as this can weaken the latex
- Do not use oil-based lubricants (e.g., petroleum jelly, baby oil, cooking oil) with latex condoms, as these degrade latex and increase the risk of breakage
- Sourcing note: Cupid Limited's own official website confirms this 12-piece pack is part of the same "Dotted Extratime" line as the 3-piece pack, alongside a 20-piece option, and a retailer (1mg) lists this exact 12-piece SKU with the same material, shape, and lubricant description as the 3-piece version. As with the 3-piece pack, sources conflict on how the "Extra Time" delay effect is achieved: one retailer (Frank Ross Pharmacy) states the 12-piece pack contains Benzocaine (a topical anesthetic) at 4.5%, while 1mg's listing and Cupid's own official site describe the lubricant only as "non-spermicidal" without naming Benzocaine or any specific numbing agent. MedEasy could not resolve this conflict and is not asserting Benzocaine content as a confirmed fact -- buyers who are sensitive to topical anesthetics should check the physical product packaging/insert for the definitive ingredient disclosure.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: Is this condom made of latex?
A: Yes, it is a natural rubber latex condom. Anyone with a latex allergy should avoid it and choose a non-latex alternative.
Q: Does this condom contain a numbing agent to delay climax?
A: Sources conflict on this point. One retailer states it contains Benzocaine (a topical anesthetic), while another retailer and the manufacturer's own website do not confirm this. MedEasy could not resolve the conflict, so this should not be treated as a confirmed fact -- check your product packaging for details.
Q: How many pieces are in one pack?
A: This MedEasy listing is for the 12-piece pack. The same line is also available in 3-piece and 20-piece packs from the same manufacturer.
Q: Can I use an oil-based lubricant with this condom?
A: No. Oil-based lubricants can weaken latex and increase the risk of breakage. Use a water-based or silicone-based lubricant if additional lubrication is needed.
Q: Can this condom be reused?
A: No, use a new condom for every act of intercourse.
