&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My condom broke! What do I do?!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Condom breaks are not uncommon.&amp;nbsp;When this happens take a deep breath and think the situation through to make a sensible decision.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don&#39;t panic !!! and keep reading our guide&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Did My Condom Break?!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Condoms may tear for various reasons. Expired condoms, inappropriately stored condoms (eg. condoms stored in hot areas), poor quality condoms, rough and prolonged sex, insufficient lubrication, damage caused by nails or teeth when opening a condom, double condom usage (when 2 condoms are used one on top of another) and re-use of a condom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Do I Clean Myself?!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;When these unfortunate accidents happen, do not panic. For males, wash your genital gently with warm water. For females, do not wash or flush your vagina with caustic fluids or detergent as these can cause mucosal injury to the vaginal wall. Seek treatment and advice from our clinic right away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Do I Have To Worry About First?!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HIV&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Calm down and talk to your partner about his or her risk of HIV, including a history of intravenous drug use, multiple sex partners, using the service of sex workers, or men who have ever had sex with another man. These are factors that could increase the risk of getting HIV. Women are at a higher risk than men to catch HIV especially if the condom broke after ejaculation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;If your HIV risk is high, please see us&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/hiv-pep&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;within 72 hours for HIV Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. This will significantly reduce your risk of getting HIV, especially if taken within the first 24 hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;STDs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;The probability of either party getting STDs is high after the condom breaks. Most people with some STDs do not show symptoms and your partner (or even yourself) may not be aware of it. This is why both should see their Doctor and be &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/std-testing&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;screened for STDs such as Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and Syphilis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

These are most effective if taken within 48 hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;*For women: DO NOT douche immediately after a condom break. This can drive sperm and bacteria deeper into your vagina.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Prevent Condom Breaks?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO use water-based lubricants such as KY jelly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO use proper-sized condoms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO hold onto the condom when withdrawing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO store condoms in a cool dry place.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO NOT reuse a condom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO NOT open the condom package with your teeth, keys, or any sharp object.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO NOT unroll the condom before putting it on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO NOT wear 2 condoms at once. Friction can cause breakage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO NOT use oil-based lubricants such as Vaseline. This can weaken the latex.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;DO NOT use expired condoms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
