How do I use a condom?

  • Put the condom on before any sexual contact.
     
  • Follow the directions on the condom package for correct placement.
     
  • Unroll the condom over an erect penis to the base of the penis. (Uncircumcised men should pull back their foreskin before unrolling.) The unrolled ring should be on the outside. Leave about 1/2 inch of space in the tip so semen can collect there. Squeeze the tip to get the air out.
     
  • Pull out after ejaculating and before the penis gets soft. To pull out, hold the rim of the condom at the base of the penis to make sure it doesn't slip off.
     
  • Don't reuse condoms.
