What can make condoms less effective?

Sometimes, sperm can get into the vagina during sex, even when using a condom. This may happen if:

• the penis touches the area around the vagina before  condom put on
• the condom splits or slide off
• the condom gets damaged by sharp fingernails or jewellery
• use oil-based lubricants, such as lotion, baby oil or petroleum jelly, this will damages the condom
• using medication for conditions like thrush, such as creams, pessaries or suppositories – this can damage latex and polyisoprene condoms and stop them working properly

If you think that sperm has entered the vagina, talk to your GP or staff at a contraception clinic about emergency contraception and the risk of STIs.

As well as condoms, you can use other forms of contraception, such as the contraceptive pill, for extra protection against pregnancy. However, other forms of contraception will not protect you against STIs. You will still be at risk of STIs if the condom breaks.
