VIVA Lifestyle – Condoms are one way to prevent the transmission of infectious diseases (STIs) and HIV. It is said that condoms can be up to 95 percent effective in preventing these incidents.
“The prevention of STIs and HIV is up to 95 percent, and indeed if we talk about condoms, the advantage is double protection in preventing STIs, HIV and unwanted pregnancies,” said Silk’s clinical training manager, Dr. Alan Vahlevi to the media crew when met at the launch of Sutra 003: Super Thin Latex Condoms in Indonesia with the Sensation of ‘Not Using’ at Lotte S Avenue, South Jakarta, Tuesday 20 February 2024.
Alan further explained that there are several things that people need to pay attention to when using condoms to get maximum results.
One way is not to use double condoms when having sex. Let’s continue scrolling through the complete article below.

“Many say that using two condoms is safe, actually this is wrong. If you use two condoms, there will be friction between the two pieces of plastic. “That can cause the condom to break, tear,” he explained.
What’s even worse, said Alan, is that when you use a double condom, you are afraid that the condom will come off during penetration. The condom can even enter a woman’s vagina.
“Or it even comes off during penetration. it makes it slippery and one of them can come off and enter the vaginal canal. “You can take it, but you have to go to the emergency room. There are incidents like this, usually the first users don’t know,” he explained.
Alan also explained to the public that all Silk condoms sold on the market had gone through a checking stage. So it is guaranteed that it will not tear when used, as long as it is used properly and correctly.
“Just use one condom because before selling the condom, the flexibility is checked so it won’t tear if you use it correctly. When you use it twice, it tears, imagine two frictions,” she said.
On the other hand, Alan also revealed that using condoms correctly provides maximum protection, namely 95 percent, to prevent the transmission of sexually transmitted infections and HIV.
Use a condom after a man experiences a hard erection.
“Usually, early users don’t know yet, so they use double. It’s wrong to use it before an erection, even though this seems like common knowledge, but many people don’t know that men use condoms when they have a hard erection. and a condom is used, if there is no hard erection, it is used and it goes straight in and can come off during penetration,” she said.
