Right Ways to Use a Condom
Safe, step-by-step guidance for proper protection and usage.
Check & Prepare
Put a drop of water-based lubricant inside the tip of the condom[cite: 1]. Hold the tip to squeeze air out and place it on the erect penis to prevent bursting[cite: 1].
Unroll to Base
While holding onto the tip, unroll the condom down to the base of the penis[cite: 1]. Ensure the shaft is free of lubricant so the condom won't slip off[cite: 1].
Use Right Lubricants
Always put the condom on before intercourse[cite: 1]. Avoid oil-based products, grease, or petroleum jelly as they burst condoms[cite: 1]. Use water-based lube instead[cite: 1].
Hold After Ejaculation
After ejaculation, hold the condom at the base of the penis before withdrawing[cite: 1]. Withdraw while still erect to prevent slipping[cite: 1].
Safe Removal
Gently pull the condom off[cite: 1]. Be careful not to let any semen spill or leak during removal[cite: 1].
Proper Disposal
Wrap the used condom in tissue and dispose of it safely in a garbage bin[cite: 1]. Do not flush it down the toilet[cite: 1].
