How do I find the right condom size?

Hi
I wanted to determine the condom size for my boyfriend's penis. However, I had a little difficulty with this. Is this information on the corresponding page the circumference or the diameter? And why is there no recommendation for over 13.1cm? Won't you get pregnant then?
Best regards

Dear Bikerpussy 🙂
The "condom width" is written on the condom packaging. This is neither the diameter nor any other mathematical size (unfortunately). It is about half the circumference. There are special measuring sticks for this. Here you can enter the circumference and easily find out the condom size:

Measuring stick: What size condom do I need?

It is not the size that matters, but that the condom fits properly. There are many different types and sizes of condoms. However, to ensure protection and reduce the risk of a burst condom, it is important to find the right condom.

On mysize.ch it shows you the right condom size up to 16.5cm circumference.
