How to use

Condom (male), single-use. Use a new condom for every act of sex. Check expiry and package integrity, open carefully (avoid teeth/sharp objects). Put on the erect penis before any genital contact; pinch the tip to leave space, roll down fully. After ejaculation, hold the rim and withdraw while still erect; dispose in bin (do not flush). Use only water-based or silicone-based lubricants; avoid oil-based products.

How it works

Creates a physical barrier that prevents semen from entering the vagina during intercourse, thereby reducing the chance of fertilization. It also reduces exchange of bodily fluids, lowering the risk of STI transmission when used consistently and correctly.

Warnings & precautions

For external use only; single use—do not reuse. Stop use and seek medical advice if irritation, rash, swelling or breathing difficulty occurs (possible latex allergy). Use with caution in people with known latex sensitivity; consider non-latex alternatives if allergic. Correct use is essential—no contraceptive method is 100% effective; condom breakage/slippage increases risk of pregnancy/STIs. Do not use if pack is damaged or expired; store away from heat and sharp objects.
