I have a question: If I use a condom, how many % chance I have to NOT become a child ?

Thanks for Help,

It depends on many factors for example the condom's quality, its usage, sexual position etc. But generally, its efficacy ranges from 90 to 95%. To improve its efficacy, you can choose to have sex during safe period or take progesterone pills within 48 hours after intercourse.

okay, thanks for the fast answer.

Does it improve the efficacy if I take my penis out before the ejaculation ?

Yes, definitely, But it is less satisfying for some guys.

By the way, do not use double condoms as the condom will break more easily. Wink

It's important to check the expiration of the condom. You should also make sure that the box and the condom appear to be in good condition. Condoms can deteriorate if not stored properly as they are both affected by heat and light.

if it's used in a proper way, then it could be a hundred percent effective. just be sure to check the durability of the condom for it could break sometimes.
