How Durex Extra Dots works

Acts as a physical barrier that prevents semen from entering the vagina during intercourse. Correct and consistent use also reduces exposure to infectious body fluids, lowering STI transmission risk.

How to take Durex Extra Dots

Use a new condom for each act of intercourse. Put on when the penis is erect before any genital contact; pinch the tip to leave space and roll down fully. Use only water-based or silicone-based lubricants with latex condoms; avoid oil-based products. After ejaculation, hold the rim and withdraw while still erect; dispose in a bin (do not flush).

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
