Contraception

You should replace the condom in your wallet

Consistent and correct use of condoms can prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. But a condom that is stored incorrectly, or is old, may be ineffective. If you have been toting a condom in your back pocket, wallet or purse for a while, you may want to replace it. It is best to store condoms in a cool, dry place and check the expiration date.
