Condoms
Q: How effective are Condoms at preventing STI's?
A: Condoms are very effective at preventing STI's such as Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, HIV, and other infections that are spread by interchanging bodily fluids. They are slightly less effective with infections like HPV and genital warts because those are spread through skin contact. Nevertheless, Condoms will still lower the chance of getting these infections.
Q: How effective are Condoms as a form of birth control?
A: Studies show that Condoms have anywhere from 90% - 99 % efficiency in preventing unwanted pregnancy, provided that no breaking or spills occur during the sexual intercourse. If this does happen, using a morning-after pill or any other form of emergency contraception is advised. This is why we emphasize on choosing high-quality products that are just the right size for you.
Q: Can I use Condoms with my sex toys?
A: While it is not necessary, you are welcome to use Condoms with any type of sex toys. If you are a fan of masturbators, using Condoms will significantly speed up the cleaning process. Just remember to check if your toy is safe to use and won't deteriorate when coming in contact with certain lubricants. Always read the manufacturer's recommendations.
Q: Should I use two condoms at the same time just to be safe?
A: Contrary to popular belief, using two condoms at the same time is inadvisable and can jeopardize the integrity of the both of them. Condoms are not resistant to abrasion between similar surfaces, so by putting one on top of the other, you will create friction that can easily lead to breaking.
