You have bought a condom, took it out of the package, and now you are ready to put it on. First you have got to figure out how to position a condom. Condoms get rolled down onto an erect penis and this means that you have to apply the condom with the rolls on the outside so that they are facing up. The easiest way to be sure you got it right is to use your finger to try if the condom can be rolled down.  Now it is time place the condom onto the head of the penis. Hold the tip of the condom with one hand to avoid leaving any air trapped inside because it could cause it to break, and unroll the condom all the way down to the bottom of the penis with the other hand. The condom is now ready to be used! 

Once the condom has been used it has to be removed immediately. You do this by rolling the condom down the penis until it comes off. Do not under any circumstances attempt to use the same condom twice. After the condom is removed it should be thrown away in the trash. Latex doesn't break down in water, so don't flush it, and it certainly isn't biodegradable, so don't put it into the compost. Just wrap it up into a paper tissue or something similar and throw it away. 

There are some problems that can come up during application of condoms and they can range from users putting condoms on inside out, the penis not staying errect during application, using too large of a condom, using too small of a condom... If you have had some of these problems, do not worry cause all you need is some practice and you'll soon be able to use a condom properly. Enjoy!
