Use A Condom Correctly

Condoms help prevent pregnancy, but only if you use them correctly. Learn how to properly put a condom on. Lean how NOW!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Make sure that any condom you are going to use has been stored in a cool place. Condoms become brittle when they are exposed to heat. Never open the package with your teeth!

  2. Step 2

    Tear the condom wrapper open with only your hands. Grab one of the corners and begin to slowly tear. Do not tear fast as you might rip the condom. If you rip the condom, you might end up with a baby.

  3. Step 3

    If the condom looks old, brittle, or feels dry, do not use this condom. Throw it away and open a new one. It will be worth it in the long run! Don't get someone pregnant!

  4. Step 4

    With one hand, pinch the "reservoir" at the end of the condom to get rid of the air. With the other hand, slowly roll the condom down to the base of the ****. Continue to use this hand to get rid of any air bubbles inside the condom.

Tips & Warnings
  • Check the expiration date on the condom before use.
  • Never open a condom wrapper with your teeth!
