COMMENT METTRE LE PRÉSERVATIF
1) Push the condom against one edge of the wrapper. Open the wrapper carefully along the pre-cut edge using your hands.
Never use sharp objects (knife, scissors, etc) to open the wrapper. Be careful not to damage the condom with fingernails or rings.
2) Hold the condom by the reservoir tip to expel any air and place it over the end of the erect penis with the foreskin pulled back.
3) Still squeezing the reservoir tip, unroll the condom down the erect penis.
The condom should unroll smoothly down the penis; if not, the condom is inside out. The lubricant is on the outside. Unroll the condom all the way down.
4) Immediately after intercourse, hold the condom in place at the base of the penis and pull out while the penis is still erect.
5) Tie a knot in the used condom and throw it away in a bin.
GUIDELINES
There is no point putting on two condoms at the same time: the friction between them could cause them to split.
In the event of insufficient lubrication during intercourse (caused by vaginal dryness, the pill, menopause, etc), apply a generous amount of lubricant gel to prevent the condom tearing. A lubricant increases the sexual comfort of both partners. Do not use oil-based lubricants (butter, massage oil, petroleum jelly, Vaseline, baby oils), as these are incompatible with latex and cause it to become porous. Do not use saliva as a lubricant as it could contain microbes.
A spermicidal lubricant or other spermicidal product may also be used if it is compatible with condoms. If in doubt, seek the advice of your doctor or pharmacist.
