We have been married for 10 years and have had a normal sex life. Now all of a sudden my wife is insisting that I use a condom even though she wears a copper T. What should I do? KVK, Mulund

Ask her why she is insisting you wear a condom. She might have her own valid reasons. Some common factors are: she might have heard of someone getting pregnant in spite of a Cu-T. It is rare but it does happen. Or she might have heard that condoms aid delayed ejaculation for increasing the timing during intercourse to have more fun. Or she is fearing some sexually transmitted infections In short, it is wise to talk openly across a coffee table. It is always the best solution rather than asking anyone or creating doubts in mind. Listen to what she has to say calmly. You both can then mutually decide with due respect for each other.
