Does this effect condom efficacy?

Unread post by Mediapd »

Just a question because I can’t find an answer anywhere, before putting a condom on if I touched my penis (just barely) then touched the condom there isn’t any risk of it hurting efficacy of preventing pregnancy when used for sex right? Just asking so I can be 100% safe in the future, id assume no bc its not direct PIV yet but obviously still worth asking.

You're correct; because it's not direct PIV there's no risk of hurting efficacy of the condom as contraception!
