How to Use a Condom

Believe it or not, there really are some important things to remember when using a condom:

Use a new condom before each sex act.
Use only latex condoms or our new polyisoprene synthetic condoms. (Lambskin provides no protection from STDs.)
Open the package carefully. Never bite it or use scissors.
Put on a condom when the penis is erect, but before sexual penetration.
Hold the condom by the tip and unroll it so it covers the entire erect penis.
If the condom doesn't have a "reservoir end," squeeze tip of condom to remove air.
If the penis is uncircumcised, pull the foreskin back before putting on the condom.
After ejaculation, hold the condom close to the base of the penis and carefully withdraw.
Immediately throw away used condoms.
If you feel a condom break while having intercourse, stop and withdraw immediately.
