Tips and Trick

• If the condom breaks, contact your provider about PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) to decrease risk of contacting HIV and get STI testing even if you have no symptoms.
• The idea that “Double Wrapping” gives double protection is WRONG. This just makes it more likely that condoms will tear.
• If there is not enough lubricants the condom can tear from friction, use a water-based lubricant to help prevent this. Do not use an oil-based lubricant, this can weaken the condom.

Storage

• Keep condoms away from extreme heat and lights
• Carrying a condom in a wallet for long periods of time can wear down the material and make it more likely to break.
