Incorrect use or breakage can reduce their effectiveness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Types of Condoms:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color

individuals allergic to latex and are also effective against HIV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-e94597ef0d0b55e67fda2bc2c665f46c\"><strong>Natural or lambskin condoms<\/strong> are less effective in preventing HIV as they may have tiny pores that can allow the virus to pass through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Dual Protection: <\/strong>In addition to HIV prevention, condoms protect against other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Key Points for Condom Success:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p

class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-a9b88eff620042d94685cc1ea5ca1552\">Store condoms properly (away from heat or sharp objects).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-c8e6a327e0f9a822a9e52d6bd511c2bc\">Check the expiration date and the integrity of the packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
