         6 . The undergarment of  claim 5 , wherein the added latex material forms a ridge around the circumference of the extension region. 
     
     
         7 . The undergarment of  claim 1 , wherein the extension region is a ring comprising one or more or silicon and latex material, wherein the ring is configured to secure the base of a condom, wherein the ring is affixed to the impermeable material of the undergarment via one or more of: (i) adhesive material, (ii) electro-sealing, and (iii) stitching, wherein the impermeable material of the undergarment is a breathable fabric material configured for user comfort during wear. 
     
     
         8 . The undergarment of  claim 7 , wherein the ring further includes one or more of: an angled tip configured to facilitate unrolling of the condom, an indentation region configured to secure a base of the condom, and a base region configured to attach to the undergarment. 
     
     
         9 . A method for wearing a protective undergarment for prevention of sexually transmitted disease and infections in conjunction with a condom, the method comprising:
 wearing the protective undergarment made of an impermeable material over a pelvic area of the user, wherein the protective undergarment includes a raised central and cylindrical-shaped extension region having an opening configured to receive a user's penis;   traversing the penis of the user through the opening of the extension region such that a base region of the user's penis rests with the extension region;   unrolling a condom over the user's penis from a distal end of the user's penis towards and over the extension region, wherein an interface between the condom and the extension region creates a seal containing the user's penis; and   engaging in sexual activity with the condom sealed via the extension region to the protective undergarment worn over the pelvic area of the user.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising the undergarment covering one more of: a scrotum, buttocks, anus, perineum, inguinal region, and upper thighs of the user. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein a diameter of the opening of the extension region is 1-2 inches in length. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising radially extending the opening of the extension region to accommodate variable sizes of the shaft of the user's penis. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising increasing the thickness of the extension region to bolster girth of the shaft of the user's penis for one or more of: (i) enhanced sexual stimulation and (ii) the seal between the extension region and the condom placed over the user's penis and the extension region. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the impermeable material is a breathable fabric material, wherein the breathable fabric material is configured for user comfort during wear. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the impermeable material is a latex material. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the extension region is comprised of an impermeable latex material and other regions of the undergarment are comprised of an impermeable breathable fabric material configured for user comfort during wear, further wherein the latex material of the extension region is affixed to the breathable fabric material of the other regions via one or more of: (i) adhesive material, (ii) electro-sealing, and (iii) stitching.

 traversing the penis of the user through an opening of the ring such that the base region of the user's penis rests within the ring;   unrolling the condom from the tip of the user's penis over at least a portion of the ring, wherein an interface between the condom and the ring creates a seal containing the user's penis; and   engaging in sexual activity with the condom sealed over the ring of the protective undergarment worn over the pelvic area of the user.   
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 18 , further comprising unrolling the condom over an angled tip region of the ring configured to facilitate unrolling the condom and securing the base of the condom to an indentation region of the ring below the angled tip region. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 18 , further comprising securing the ring to the protective undergarment via a base of the ring. 
     
     
         21 . An undergarment for prevention of sexually transmitted disease and infection comprised of an impermeable material, further having an integrated extension region around an opening of the undergarment, wherein the opening is configured to be unrolled to deploy over at least a portion of the user's penis towards a tip of the user's penis, wherein the extension region has an open unrolled end facing the tip of the user's penis and further wherein at least a portion of the extension region is configured to receive a condom unrolled from the tip of the user's penis and deployed over the unrolled extension region to create a seal between the extension region and the condom.
