The government of Uganda has to deal with a \u201chuge\u201d problem; many of the condoms distributed to their people are too small.
Ugandans are issuing urgent calls for larger sizes.
Lots of Ugandan men have complained to MPs that the condoms are too short and do not fit their sexual organs. These smaller condoms can create pressure during use, which could lead to unexpected bursting.
HIV\/AIDS is a big problem in the central African nation, with around 80,000 people dying of AIDS every year.
Condoms are one of the most effective precautionary measures in the battle against HIV. This is why the MPs in Uganda are taking the people\u2019s complaints so seriously.
\u201cSome youth are complaining that the condoms they are being given, some of them are too short, their organs can\u2019t fit in them,\u201d MP Merard Bitekyerezo said at the NTV Uganda News channel.
Tom Aza, another MP, continued: \u201cWhen it comes to action, when they\u2019re having sexual activity, of course with the pressure, it bursts. [Some men] have bigger sexual organs and therefore should be considered for bigger condoms.\u201d
Average condom sizes all over the world are somewhere between 6.9 and 8.5 inches. However, one can find XXL condoms in sizes of 9.25 inches.<\/p>\n
