If the condom breaks, what do I do?

 You've got options:

First things first: Take a deep breath.

You are not the first person to suffer a ripped or BROKEN CONDOM DURING SEXUAL INTERCOURSE, and you surely won't be the last.

The hazards you face rely on the sort of sex you had before the condom broke.

To reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STI) and pregnancy, there are steps you can take, however time is important.

We'll be talking to you about what to do next.

Consider the situation:

Stop what you're doing right away if you find the condom you're using is missing. Withdraw from the flesh of your companion.

Evaluate what you need to do next, next. You will help decide the next moves with these questions.

Aspects to remember: -

         I.            During ejaculation, did breakage happen? You will be able to remove the old condom, roll on a new one, and go about your business if no ejaculate or pre-ejaculate is present.

       II.            Is there a condom already on? Whether it's not, you may need to take it out of yourself or the body of your companion.

     III.            Should I be pregnant? If so, in order to stop conception, you can need to get emergency contraceptives.

    IV.            Will I transmit a STI or contract it? Consider getting screened if you or your partner are uncomfortable with your STI status. You may need to take preventive medication as well.

If pregnancy scares you:

Go to the bathroom right away. Such measures can assist:

         i.            Down Bear. Pressure your vaginal muscles down as you're sitting on the toilet. This will aid in moving some leftover ejaculate out.

       ii.            Only urinate. Push yourself to pee on the toilet when you're waiting. This would not wash sperm out of the vaginal canal, but on the outside of the vagina, it may help to clear anything.

     iii.            Oh, wash up. Jump in the tub, or softly splash your vagina using lukewarm water. It helps to wash away any remaining ejaculate as well.

     iv.            Stop showering. A douche's chemicals will irritate the delicate skin around the vagina. This can open you up to infection and inflammation. It can even drive semen into your body more.

Preventive medications

The only preventive medicine effective at this time is post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). Your chance of having HIV can be minimised by PEP.

 

See a doctor or other healthcare provider straight away if you believe you might have been exposed to HIV.

PEP isn't a single-use pill. For at least 28 days, you will continue to take the drug once or twice every day.

Where to get a test with a STI
