If used absolutely perfect, It is estimated that there is a 3% failure rate of a condom. Now the failure rate of "in real life use" aka not always used perfectly is 14%. Condom failure can result in either an STD or pregnancy.

Since you've decided you want to have sex and are going to use condoms, here's some tips.

In Case of an accident - Have your local Family Planning/Gyno or family doctor's number on hand. If you do end up haveing a breakage or a slip you'll need the emergency contraceptive pill(aka morning after pill) ASAP - Whithin 72 hours-The sooner the better!. Emergency Contraception is approximately 98% effective in preventing pregnancy.

Prevent a Breakage -Roll the condom onto the wearer's pen*s about one inch. Then squeeze the air out of the reservoir tip with your thumb and forefinger. For condoms with no reservoir, allow a little slack at the tip and pinch out any air. This will be much easier to do if the inside of the condom is lubricated. (Lubricated condoms also reduce friction, which helps to prevent it breaking.)

Lube! - Use water-soluble lubricant such as Probe, Astroglide, Slippery Stuff, K-Y Jelly (liquid) or Erogel. Avoid products with mineral oil or any ingredients that begin with "petrol." Though many people have reached for Vaseline as a lubricant, it is not a good choice for lubricating condoms. That's because these products can reduce the strength of latex. Since some bacteria flourish in mineral oil derivatives, these products can create or exacerbate problems in a vagina or rectum as well.

Added protection - Some condoms have added spermicide, an active chemical in spermicides, nonoxynol-9, kills sperm. But spermicides alone (as sold in creams and jellies over-the-counter in drugstores) and spermicides used with the diaphragm or cervical cap do not give adequate protection against HIV and other STDs. For the best disease protection, a latex condom should be used from start to finish every time a person has sex.

Check it -FDA requires condoms to be labeled with an expiration date. Condoms should be stored in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Closets and drawers usually make good storage places. Because of possible exposure to extreme heat and cold, glove compartments of cars are not a good place to store condoms. For the same reason, condoms shouldn't be kept in a pocket, wallet or purse for more than a few hours at a time. Condoms should not be used after the expiration date, usually abbreviated EXP and followed by the date.

Compare condoms to pills. (effectiveness in preventing pregnancy)
Perfect Use of condoms: 97% (3% failure)
Typical Use of Condoms: 88% (14% failure)
Perfect Use of BC Pills: 99% (1% failure)
Typical Use of BC Pills: 97% (3% failure)
