MARKET TRENDS & OPPORTUNITIES
Innovation in Condom Designs
The technology-driven condoms are some of the new & innovative contraception that people highly prefer in the U.S. sexual wellness market. As many end-users are allergic to latex, they highly prefer to use these latex-free condoms, thereby motivating various companies to manufacture and produce latex-free condoms. The technology-based condoms are usually light & slim that are available in different colors, sizes, & scents as per the consumer needs. Some of these condoms include ORIGAMI, Hydrogel, and The Galactic Cap. ORIGAMI Condoms are mainly allergen-free and, without an odor or smell, allowing for easy, smooth, & better motion during intercourse. Hydrogels are usually biodegradable & eco-friendly that consists of properties similar to the tissue that can be designed & feel like skin. The Galactic Cap comprises polyurethane consisting of two parts: one cap sticks to the tip of the penis, and the other sticks to the base and persists before intercourse.Government Initiatives for Free Condom Distribution
Free condoms distributed by the government have always been and will continue to be a major source of condom distribution, especially for poor people. The NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has distributed free condoms since 1971. Under its recent initiative, it enables social service organizations to directly order free condoms from DOHMH’s website as frequently as needed. The government also understands that the intended public regularly has a negative view of free condoms. In response, the government started distributing branded condoms and their variations in various countries. Thus, these government initiatives make major contributions to the growth of the U.S. sexual wellness market.INDUSTRY RESTRAINTS
Easy Availability of Substitutes for Condoms
While no contraceptive can be termed foolproof to prevent pregnancy, several have come closer to achieving perfection. Contraceptives, including surgical procedures, pills, barriers, and implants, are designed and upgraded regularly to achieve perfection. Surgical procedures and implants usually have a low failure rate on correct implementation. Although condoms rank lower on the perfection rate, they provide a high protection rate against STDs and STIs. However, the risk of STD and STI transfer rate is lower or non-existent in people that stick to a single partner. In such scenarios, people prefer to use long-standing contraceptives. In addition, condoms have to be used every time someone has intercourse. Other contraceptives are usually replaced at longer intervals or, in some cases, permanently. Therefore, such high availability of substitute contraceptives has created a significant challenge to the demand for condoms, adversely impacting the U.S. sexual wellness market.SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS
