This is because the materials that a condom is made from perish over time, making them unsafe and unsuitable for use.

Using an out of date product can lead to splits or even the condom bursting during intercourse. This can lead to unwanted pregnancy and also the transmission of STDs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here's a selection of the most frequently asked questions here at Condoms.uk:

What is a condom?

A condom is a method of barrier contraception. Usually made from rubber latex or polyisoprene, a condom is designed to reduce the risk of pregnancy and the transmission of STIs.

How effective are condoms?

Research has shown that male condoms are up to 98% effective at preventing pregnancy.

Female condoms (or internal condoms are they're sometimes called) are generally only 95% effective.

This means that male condoms are widely regarded as the most effective method of barrier contraception.

Also, because they are a method of barrier contraception, they're also effective at reducing the transmission of STIs during intercourse. Transmission of STIs during intercourse is not prevented when using other (non-barrier) contraception methods.
