2. Carefully remove condom from package.
3. Place condom on the tip of the erect penis and with one hand holed the condom by the last 1/2 inch at the tip.  With the other hand, roll the condom on all the way to the base of the penis.  Make sure to squeeze out any air bubbles along the way and leave room at the tip for ejaculation. 
4. After sex, hold on to the rim of the condom at the base of the penis and withdraw before loss of the erection.

• Put the condom on before any genital or oral contact 
• Use a new condom every single time - don't reuse!
• Use only one condom at a time - one is enough!
• Use only water-based lubricants (not oil-based Vaseline, shortening, oils, lotions - they can weaken latex).
• If you feel the condom break, stop, withdraw, and remove it.  Then put on a new one.
