    1. Carefully tear off the edge of the condom package to prevent the condom from tearing; avoid using scissors or other artifacts to ensure that the condom does not tear.

    2. Carry a condom when the genitals are erect. Remember to put on the condom before penile insertion. The secretion produced in the early stage of genital erection may contain sperm and pathogenic bacteria that cause sexually transmitted diseases, which can cause pregnancy and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.

    3. The residual gas in the condom will cause the condom to crack. To prevent the possibility of cracking, use your thumb and ring finger to gently squeeze the front end of the condom to release a small packet of gas, and then put the condom on the erect penis. Make sure that the end of the condom is rolled up and part of it is exposed on both sides.

    4. While squeezing and holding the front end of the condom, use the other hand to gently flex and stretch the condom to cover the entire male genitals. Make sure that the condom is tightly attached to the glans penis during sexual intercourse; if part of the condom becomes dislodged, immediately put it back to its original position. A condom should only be used once. Wrap used condoms in paper towels and put them in the trash.
