Can I still get pregnant even with a condom?

For a normal relationship between a man and a woman, sexual intercourse is a natural thing. However, due to many family or personal factors, it is not suitable to have a child, and taking birth control pills has an impact on the body. Therefore, many people choose to wear condoms. However, even wearing a condom cannot completely avoid the possibility of pregnancy, which means that it is possible to get pregnant even with a condom. The main reasons for this consequence are as follows.

Some people do not wear condoms from the beginning of sexual intercourse, but only when they are about to ejaculate. In this way, there is a possibility that the wife may become pregnant. Because, during sexual intercourse, premature or unconscious ejaculation may occur. For this reason, we emphasize wearing condoms throughout sexual intercourse.

Some people forget to squeeze out the air in the nipple sac before using a condom. As a result, during intercourse, the condom bursts due to the expansion of the air in the sac due to heat, or the increased pressure in the sac after ejaculation, and semen flows into the vagina, causing contraceptive failure.

Some people do not use their fingers to pinch the condom opening and pull the penis out of the vagina in time after ejaculation. Because the penis becomes soft and smaller after ejaculation, the rubber band at the condom opening loses its function, and as a result, semen flows back into the vagina.

Some people suffer from this condition due to improper storage of condoms. Usually, manufacturers generally guarantee that there will be no quality problems with condoms within five years. If stored for too long, the latex will deteriorate due to oxidation, and become sticky and lose its elasticity. Exposing condoms to the sun or placing them near a heater or in underwear pockets where they are heated or squeezed, or accidentally scratched by sharp objects such as fingernails or rings, will affect their contraceptive effectiveness.

Whether you will get pregnant if you wear a condom is a question that is related to many aspects, including the quality, storage method, and usage method of the condom. But the most important influencing factor is the ineffectiveness of condoms due to improper use, which means that you can get pregnant even with a condom. Pregnancy while using a condom happens frequently, so before using a condom, you must read the instructions carefully and use it correctly according to the instructions. You should also check the production date and expiration date before use. Expired condoms have deteriorated and are prone to breakage and should not be used.
