If he had an STD/HIV, about the same chances as if you hadn't been using protection.  Sounds like he was too small for the condom.

With ALL sex (oral, vaginal, or anal) there is ALWAYS an exchage of fluid between the man and woman. That is why it's crucial to wearing a condom! Girls secreate discharge during sex wether or not they feel it..and guys secreate a discharge before they orgasm without even knowing it. So even if he "didn't finish" or pulled out..you're still at risk for ANY STD and pregnancy. HIV isn't as common as Ghoneria, Herpes, and Chlamydia. If you're considering having sex and are timid about the risk, go to your local Planned Parenthood with your partner and both get tested! Here's a good link to find out more information on STD's..symtoms, cures..and the whole bit.

sometimes it is hard to get the condome over the exess fore-skin when it is retracted. the first time i did it i had a little of a strugle. the best thing to do is to get some condoms and practice on your own so that you dont look like a fool in front of you lady.

Yes, most definitely!\n\nAlso, be careful, as a condom can slip off fairly easily underwater. Also, hot tub/pool chemicals can cause the latex to deteriorate.\n\nSafe sex should be on dry land.

Condoms are a safe bet, but there's always a risk.  Still, better to use one than not!

You sound so scared so lets see if we cant help you a little, first dont panic i know but please this makes you ill and your sytoms worse which may well be the case right now.The truth is the risk of aids  is low and the only way to know is a test. Yes scary but it will put an end to all of this. In your phone book there will be a number of a clinic the nhs is your in the uk has private test centres within the hospital they have councilors who can talk to you can tell you of the risks. And help you deal with what is happening and how you feel, it will help. While at the clinic they will also run other test at the same time so then you will know for sure. At this point i will tell you that if you have std it can and will be treated it is not the end of the world, just a huge learning curve for you. Also remember having a cold or flu does not mean that you are ill with anything else, it may of just knocked you side ways and took alittle longer to run its course and you were travelling as well, so your body have of slowed down. There is only one thing to do and that is call your hospital, no one has to know and you dont even have to be called your real name when you get there and no one has to know, but you need to go and get checked out. Remember it may be nothing, it does not sound like hiv or aids, the chances are so so remote and if its std you can be treated. Take care and good luck.

That would happen to me every once in a while..no idea why (probably because of lack of lubrication/friction) but I was on the pill and didn't use a condom or anything.  Now that I'm off the pill, we use condoms that are lubricated and it hasn't happened to me since.  Condoms are so nice =)

Condoms make sex safer when used properly but they are not 100 percent safe. Safety factors to check on when buying and using condoms are,\n- Expiry date of the condom - do not use one which has expired.\n- Storage - condoms should be kept away from the heat (for example, from car glove compartments, direct sunlight), and pressure (for example, sitting on a wallet containing condoms).\n- Making sure that sharp objects do not tear a condom during use.\n- Making sure that the air is expelled from the teat of the condom while wearing, so as to prevent it from bursting during intercourse.\n\nThe only was to stay HIV/AIDS free is to follow "The A, B, C of HIV prevention",\nA= Abstinence\nB= Being faithful to one single partner and\nC= Consistent and correct use of condoms.\n\nStay Safe.

condoms are one of the best ways to protect against sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy but remember that nothing is 100% guaranteed except to not have sex at all. Condoms are like 98.9% effective though so ya, they are pretty safe as long as you put them on right, make sure that you have the right sized condom because if it is too small it could tear and if it is to big it could slip off. Hope that this helps.

If soap helped we would all know about it.  Hopefully you were using protection.  If not you need to get tested and quick!! There is the chance that you did not get infected but there is also the chance that you did.  Please go and find out for sure.

While bleeding from your penis isn't normal I think you may need a bigger size condom. I would suggest waiting until you have completely erect to put the condom on, and also leaving room at the tip. The pressure from the condom may cause some of the delicate blood vessels in the tip of your penis to rupture and thus bleed.

Whenever there is a fluid exchange from the genitalia - pregnancy can take place.  Condoms are not 100%.

Condoms *are* birth control.  Used correctly every time, they have a very high success rate--95-98%, one of the highest of any method.  They're reversible (no ill effects to your system if/when you want to get pregnant) and there's no danger of long term side effects (and we can't really say that about the Pill, IUD, depo-provera, etc.)  They can also protect you against STDs.  I think one (perhaps the only) benefit of the AIDS crisis is that condoms are probably more reliable than in the past.  Make sure you check that they haven't expired and don't store them in the heat.  Some lubricants can break down the rubber.  There is always some risk in sexual activity.  (As you can tell, I think there's risk in using some of the other methods of birth control too.)  If you can't take the risk (of a pregnancy/abortion and other consequences), then perhaps you shouldn't have sex.

Most condoms made by major manufacturers are good quality, and breakage/leakage rates are carefully monitored in manufacturing.  The latex CAN degrade by age---which is why they have expiration dates---and excessive heat/temperatures can also ruin the rubber, which is why keeping them in the glove compartment of your car is a Real Bad Idea.  \n\nFrom what I understand, the fastest way known to ruin a condom is to use a non-compatible lubricant with it.  If you use anything with a petroleum base, like Vaseline, it will literally MELT.  \n\nAlso, I checked a general reference (Guide to Getting it On, by Paul Joannides, 4th edition; Goofy Foot Press---probably the best, and certainly funniest, general sexuality book)---he mentioned a researcher (p. 578: Paul Voeller; no other citation listed) found that hand creams of ALL types and body powders will seriously weaken and destroy condoms.  "Almost any type of hand cream will weaken a latex rubber by 90% in less than 60 seconds, especially those that contain mineral oil."  \n\nMoral of the story:  USE ONLY lubricants that are marked as LATEX-COMPATIBLE.\n\nThere's also a reference that condoms may burst if you don't squeeze the air out of the tip before rolling it into place down the penile shaft.  I've only had one condom break during intercourse (very horrifying experience; thank goodness for the morning-after pill!)---no idea why it broke, BUT if I was having prolonged intercourse, I'd pause and check to make sure the rubber was still intact.\n\nI've heard that condom failure rates are based upon use for conventional vaginal intercourse, and there are anecdotal stories that **they may be slightly more likely to break** during anal intercourse, but have no hard data concerning this.  (You're on your own for the chances in general; maybe check the Planned Parenthood site?)\n\nFrom what I understand, most "contraceptive failures" on condom usage are associated not with breakage, but with failing to put the thing on early enough (before ANY penetration occurs), or with not hanging onto it during withdrawal, and the condom slipping off.  \n\nIn summary:  Buy nationally-known brands; check expiration dates; keep them at room temperature; use only LATEX-COMPATABLE lubricants; check the condom if you're having prolonged or really energetic sex.  And always use a fresh new condom, each time, every time, whenever you're having penetrative intercourse, to reduce the chances of sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy.\n\nHope this helps.
