In other words:

• Never reuse condoms, finger cots, or dental dams.
• Don't use anything that appears damaged or has expired.
• Follow the instructions on the packaging to ensure that the barrier is on correctly and is also stored correctly.
• Use lubrication as needed. The more, the better!

Even the best condoms aren't always 100 percent effective, so if possible, use multiple forms of contraception and get tested for STIs regularly.

Speak to a doctor or other healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns about your sexual health.
