Use
a new condom every time you have sexual intercourse or other
acts between partners that involve contact with the penis.
|
|
Move
the condom inside the package away from
the area where the package is to be torn. Tear the package
and remove the condom carefully to avoid being damaged by
fingernails, jewellery, etc. |
|
Put
the condom on after the penis is erected and prior to intimate
contact, because lesions, pre-ejaculate secretions, semen,
vaginal secretions, saliva, urine and faeces can all transmit
STD organisms. |
|
Place
the condom on the head of the penis and leave an empty space
at the end of the condom to collect the semen. Remove the
air out of the tip of the condom by gently pressing the
air out with one hand. |
|
If
you and your partner are using any medication in the genital
area, consult your doctor or pharmacist to check that it's safe
to use condoms. |
|
After
ejaculation carefully withdraw the penis while it is still
erect. Hold onto the rim of the condom as you withdraw so
that the condom does not slip off. |
|
Use
the condom once only. Wrap the used condom and dispose it
into waste container. |
