Use a new condom
for every sexual act. If the penis has a foreskin,
pull it back before putting on the condom.
|

Always handle
condoms gently. Put the condom on as soon as the
penis is erect. Be sure the rolled-up ring is on the
outside. And leave space at the tip to hold semen
when you ejaculate. |
Squeeze
the tip gently so no air is trapped inside. Hold the
tip while you unroll the condom...all the way down
to the hair. If the condom doesn’t unroll, it’s on
wrong. Throw it away and start over with a new one. |
After
ejaculation, while the penis is still erect, hold
the condom firmly at the base of the penis to keep
it from slipping off while withdrawing from your
partner. |
Wrap
the condom in a tissue and throw it in the trash.
Don’t flush them down the toilet. Afterwards, wash
your hands with soap and water or a waterless hand
washing product. Never re-use a condom – use a new
condom for every new sexual act |
Never let a latex condom touch oils in any form–no
petroleum jelly, no baby oil, no mineral oil, no
vegetable oil, not even talcum/baby powder. Oil
causes condoms to deteriorate.
