Check material, lubricant and wrapper condition
Use the package directions for the selected condom.
Check the material
The products in this comparison are listed as latex. If you have a latex allergy, check the packaging for a suitable non-latex option.
Use compatible lubricant
Oil-based products can weaken latex. Follow the condom and lubricant instructions and read the CDC instructions for external condoms.
Use a fresh condom each time
Check the expiration date and wrapper condition before use. If a condom breaks or slips, stop and replace it. The CDC instructions for external condoms explain correct use and disposal.
