National Condom Month: Why Today’s Protection Is About Pleasure, Confidence and Connection, According to Sex & Relationship Expert, Dr. Deb Laino

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In recognition of National Condom Month, sex and relationship therapist Dr. Deb Laino is encouraging young adults to prioritize safer sex practices - not just for protection, but for the emotional and relational benefits that come with feeling secure and aligned with your partner. As conversations around consent and sexual wellness continue to evolve, Dr. Laino emphasizes that condoms are not just about prevention - they help create a shared understanding of responsibility, reduce anxiety around unintended consequences, and allow couples to be more present with one another.

“Being responsible and using condoms should feel seamless, not awkward,” says Dr. Laino. “When you feel confident and comfortable, you can focus on the chemistry, the closeness, and the experience you’re creating together - which is what truly enhances pleasure and connection.”

When used correctly and consistently, condoms remain one of the most effective and accessible methods for helping prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy. But beyond protection, they can also increase emotional safety, build mutual trust, and remove distractions or worry that can interfere with intimacy - ultimately allowing partners to feel more relaxed, confident, and connected in the moment.

Among one of the newest sexual health innovations is Trojan G.O.A.T.™ (Greatest of All Trojan) from Trojan Brand Condoms. Made with patent-pending UltraFlex™ Non-Latex material, G.O.A.T. is designed to be soft, flexible, strong, odorless, and colorless - helping partners experience a closer, more natural feel. The material is engineered to enhance body heat transfer and adapt to movement, supporting comfort and a sense of next-level intimacy without compromising reliability.

Trojan also offers a range of condoms to meet different preferences, including Trojan Pleasure Pack, which provides a mix of textures and sensations; Trojan BareSkin Raw, designed for an ultra-thin feel; and Trojan Magnum condoms, created for those who prefer a larger fit for added comfort and security.

Dr. Laino encourages individuals to approach safe sex proactively - having conversations with partners ahead of time, choosing products that feel comfortable, and viewing condom use as a shared responsibility.
