Black & blue? Or white & gold? Whatever you see, condoms keep you safe from pregnancy/STDs.

Where NOT to store your condoms long term:

So where should you store condoms? In a cool, dry place where it’s not likely to get punctured or mangled. Keep that wrapper safe and intact. It’s okay to keep a condom in your purse or wallet for the night as long as there’s nothing in there that might puncture it. Just don’t store it there long term.

Happy National Condom Week!

Besides abstinence, condoms are one of the most effective ways to prevent STDs, HIV, and/or pregnancy. Both partners can and should be involved in the decision to use condoms and can help make surethe condom is used correctly.  

 Here are the steps to using a condom correctly:

Just in time to make sure your Valentine’s day plans don’t end with having to make the next date at the clinic to get tested. (Again.)

Equipment bags can be found in various small businesses throughout the East Harlem community, as well as at Harlem RBI.

A note on common condom names: Though condoms are usually called “male” and “female” condoms, it’s important to remember that people with penises do not always identify themselves as male, and people with vaginas do not always identify as female. “Female” condoms can also be worn by anyone, since they can be worn in vaginas and rectums.

If you’re looking for more neutral language, “internal” and “external” are good substitutions for “female” and “male.”

Question: what’s the upside of using internal condoms when external condoms guarantee a 97% effectiveness while the internal ones range from 98 to 72??

Internal condoms can be a good choice for people with latex allergies, since they are typically made of nitrile, and might also be an alternative for people experiencing discomfort with external condoms.

What’s great about condoms?

If not used correctly, condoms can break.  To prevent breakage or slippage, make sure you check for proper placement, and size. Check to make sure the condom wrapper isn’t torn and the condom doesn’t have any holes. If your condom has been in your purse or wallet forever, get a new one!!  Lubrication can help and make sex more enjoyable too!

safe sex is important, kids.
