Welcome to Episode 4: Hacking Your Biology with Delay Condoms. This episode is a practical guide to a simple tool that often gets misunderstood. Delay condoms work by reducing penile sensitivity (usually via a mild desensitizing agent and/or thicker material), which can slow the arousal curve and buy you more time—especially when combined with pacing and breath.

In this episode, we cover:

* How delay condoms work: sensitivity reduction + friction management + pacing support

* What to expect: more control, sometimes less intensity—how to balance that trade-off

* How to use them correctly: timing, fit, lubrication, and not overdoing the numbing effect

* Partner safety: preventing transfer of numbing agents (and what to do if irritation happens)

* Choosing the right option: thicker vs. desensitizing vs. “regular + technique”

* Common mistakes: stacking multiple desensitizers, skipping lube, rushing, or relying on condoms alone

* Best results: combining delay condoms with arousal awareness, breath, and communication

* When to consider alternatives: if sensation loss affects pleasure or if symptoms persist despite tools
