- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine the effectiveness of the Test Condom A compared with the Control NRL Condom at prolonging time to ejaculation. 4 weeks for each assessment period (intervention duration) Subjects will be recording the duration (time in minutes:seconds) from vaginal entry to ejaculation for each condom use. The outcome is evaluated by the change from baseline with the Test Condom A compared to the Control NRL Condom, over a 4-week assessment period.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine the effectiveness of the Test Condom B compared with the Control NRL Condom at prolonging time to ejaculation. 4 weeks for each assessment period (intervention duration) Subjects will be recording the duration (time in minutes:seconds) from vaginal entry to ejaculation for each condom use. The outcome is evaluated by the change from baseline with the Test Condom B compared to the Control NRL Condom, over a 4-week assessment period.
To determine the effectiveness of the Test Condom A and Test Condom B compared with the Control NRL Condom at prolonging time to ejaculation for an increase of 2, 3, and 4 minutes. 4 weeks for each assessment period (intervention duration) Subjects will be recording the duration (time in minutes:seconds) from vaginal entry to ejaculation for each condom use. The outcome is evaluated by the proportion of subjects who achieve an increase of 2, 3 and 4 minutes from baseline in each of the Test Condom A and Test Condom B compared to the Control NRL Condom.
To evaluate the sexual pleasure when using the Test Condom A or Test Condom B compared with the Control NRL Condom. 4 weeks for each assessment period (intervention duration) The outcome is assessed by the measure of EMSEX (Event-level Male Sexual) pleasure scale questionnaire, a subject perceived questionnaire, at the end of a 4-week assessment period when using Test Condom A or Test Condom B compared with the Control NRL Condom.
To evaluate the subject's improvement at "lasting longer" for both the Test Condom A and Test Condom B compared with the Control NRL Condom. 4 weeks for each assessment period (intervention duration) The outcome is assessed by the measure of Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC), a subject perceived questionnaire, at the end of a 4-week assessment period when using Test Condom A or Test Condom B compared with the Control NRL Condom.
Subject's experience on the use of each type of condoms [Acceptability and In-Use Tolerability] 19 weeks Acceptability and in-use tolerability as assessed by subject perceived questionnaires.
