How often do condoms break?
Of the three different condom types, latex condoms are the most durable. However, anywhere from 2% to 6% of condoms will fall off or break during sex.
If the condom breaks, what should I do?
Depending on when you notice the break, you have a few different options.
When you notice the breakage before ejaculation, quickly pull out, remove the broken condom and put a new one on.
If ejaculation has already occurred, then wash away any semen that has leaked out with soap and warm water. This may also help to reduce your chances of STD infection. If you have any spermicidal foam, insert two applications into the vagina. Do not douche.
Regardless of when you noticed the break, contact your health care provider or a pregnancy resource center to discuss the possibility of pregnancy, what your options are and to take an STD test.

in case you're for actual and the you think of which you would be doubtlessly pregnant, bypass on your well-known practitioner and get the morning after pill. In effect a ask your self dose of the element in the conventional contreceptive pill. could be attainable out of your community pharmacy/ dispencary. do no longer even concider an abortion as this is going to screw your existence completely for ever and you would be a cot case syko. If each thing turns pear formed undertake and make an infertile coulpes dream come genuine. next time attempt a extra respected condom, or maybe 2. in case you're Irish attempt 3 .. to be shaw, to be shaw, to be shaw !! magoo

My first pregnancy (which was terminated)was the product of a broken condom. I can't actually tell you how exactly it did break because it's hard to explain and I am not 100% sure but I think my teeth may have weakened the condom from oral sex. Also, After he ejaculated from oral sex, he ejaculated once more from intercourse which may have loosened the condom and may have caused a tear.

umm, misuse of them is the main problem i would say
because if they are used correctly and within the "expiration date" then they shouldnt break
