how safe are condoms?

Question

How safe are condoms? Both me and a guy are planning on meeting to have sex, however I am not on contraception so would be using comdoms. Just wanted to know how safe it is.

Answer

As long as they fit, are stored properly and are applied properly their between 96-99% effective in preventing pregnancy. They are also effective in preventing most sti's.

Answer

Extremely safe. But they can break.

Answer

If you put them on correctly you should be fine. They usually only break if a woman is not aroused to her full potential, I suggest always have water based lubricant around!

Answer

I've been using them since my first time (almost a year and a half) and I'm fine. I want to start taking hormonal birth control soon but I'm not sure. I took the emergency contraception twice or so because it slipped off. Also we've tried different types and brands; it's a good idea if you or your partner think they don't fit.
If you use the condom correctly you should be fine😘
