Answer 2

Reasons to use condoms
Condoms are the only contraceptive that also helps prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) including HIV when used properly and consistently.

Condoms are one of the most reliable methods of birth control when use properly and consistently.

Condoms have none of the medical side-effects of some other birth control methods may have.

Condoms are available in various shapes, colours, flavours, textures and sizes - to increase the fun of making love with condoms.

Condoms are widely available in pharmacies, supermarkets and convenience stores. You don't need a prescription or have to visit a doctor.

Condoms make sex less messy.

Condoms are user friendly. With a little practice, they can also add confidence to the enjoyment of sex.

Condoms are only needed when you are having sex unlike some other contraceptives which require you to take or have them all of the time.


Condoms are the only form of protection which can both help to stop the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) such as HIV and prevent pregnancy.

Condoms and lubricants sometimes contain a spermicide called Nonoxynol 9. Nonoxynol 9 was thought in the past to help to prevent pregnancy and the transmission of HIV and other STDs, but it is now know to be ineffective.

Some people have an allergic reaction to Nonoxynol 9 that can result in little sores, which can actually make the transmission of HIV more likely. Because of this, you should only use condoms and lubricants containing Nonoxynol 9 if you are HIV negative and know that your partner is too. However, using a condom (even if it contains Nonoxynol 9) is much safer than having unprotected sex.

You need to use a new condom every time you have sexual intercourse. Never use the same condom twice. Put the condom on after the penis is erect and before any contact is made between the penis and any part of the partner's body. If you go from anal intercourse to vaginal intercourse, you should consider changing the condom.

Condoms that have been properly tested and approved carry the British Standard Kite Mark or the EEC Standard Mark (CE). In the USA, condoms should be FDA approved, and elsewhere in the world, they should be ISO approved. To find out more about condom testing see our Condoms history, effectiveness and testing page.

Condoms have an expiration (Exp) or manufacture (MFG) date on the box or individual package that tells you when it is safe to use the condom until. It's important to check this when you use a condom. You should also make sure the package and the condom appear to be in good condition.

Condoms can deteriorate if not stored properly as they are affected by both heat and light. So it's best not to use a condom that has been stored in your back pocket, your wallet, or the glove compartment of your car. If a condom feels sticky or very dry you shouldn't use it as the packaging has probably been damaged.

If used properly, a condom is very effective at reducing the risk of being infected with HIV during sexual intercourse. Using a condom also provides protection against other sexually transmitted diseases, and protection against pregnancy. In the laboratory, latex condoms are very effective at blocking transmission of HIV because the pores in latex condoms are too small to allow the virus to pass through. However, outside of the laboratory condoms are less effective because people do not always use condoms properly.

Answer 3

To prevent pregnancy and STD transmission.

There seems to be a lot of answerers here that are spreading misinformation about the AIDS virus being able to get through condoms. If you use the right kind of condom (i.e. not lambskin) with a spermicidal lubricant, experts say that your chances of HIV transmission are pretty much nil, like .01%. But they make it sound like 50%. Do they have some kind of abstinence or homophobic or anti-sex agenda or something?

Protect yourself when you have sex, don't rely on your sex partner's information. You're worth it!

Answer 4

The condom is a form of conception control, as opposed to "birth control." All birth control is essentially abortion at really early stage after conception.
Conception control prevents conception altogether, like spermicides, abstinence and the condom.
