what about PEP?Effective?
Must start immediately?:confused:

Re: condom broke advise please
 

TS i remember someone mentioned before that PEP was most effective within 72 hours

Re: condom broke advise please
 

you are right that not being circumcised carry a higher risk and this is another reason why sam and myself has been advocating you guys to get yourself circumcised. There are a ton of other benefits on being circumcised.

Circumcision can help reduce the risk of HIV transmission in men by about 60%, it doesnt help reduce the risk in woman though..

On PEP, the sooner you start on it.. the more effective it is and it should be done within the first 72hrs after exposure.

Cost for PEP?
the private clinics all 2k for one month. is it cheaper at afa?

Re: condom broke advise please
 

i dont know the cost.. you might want to call the clinics up to check

No, AFA dont do PEP.. you could try DSC Clinic, same location as AFA but cost unknown. call them up to check..

Dsc opens monday. Might be too late. Pls go pte. 2k is better than lifetime regrets

Re: condom broke advise please
 

i am curious what is the brand of that condom.. is it provided by the FL or you bought urself? anyway, hope all are well man...

Re: condom broke advise please
 

What difference does it make why it broke? It's water under the bridge.

Re: condom broke advise please
 

Next time don’t buy this brand. I realized those provided by FL or Suana ones are dangerous.. don’t know what brand and how they manufacture. Even don’t break also not 100%

Re: condom broke advise please
 

did you misread my comment? I was asking what brand it is, so can avoid.. I did not ask why it broke..

Re: condom broke advise please
 

No I did not. Condom breakage isn't about brands. Condoms fail because :

1. Incorrect storage eg left in a hot car for long periods.

2. Past expiry date.

3. Damaged by teeth, jewelry during the process of unwrapping, blow job etc.

4. Not expelling all the air at the tip before putting on.

5. Insufficient lubrication during intercourse.

Any brand can fail if things are not done right.

Re: condom broke advise please
 

Failure rate for condoms during typical use is 15%.

Failure rate for condoms during perfect use is 2%.

Unfortunately, you and I will fall under typical use whereas perfect use is under controlled situations, most likely during lab tests. No getting it on in a lab doesn't count...

Re: condom broke advise please
 

I had a condom break once and it was the best brand in town Durex extra safe and well within the expiry date.

The problem was caused by insufficient lubrication. We were at it for too long and she dried up. It's like running a car engine without oil.

Never made the same mistake again and so far so good.

Re: condom broke advise please
 

Go DSC after 6 months to check and refrain from any cheonging till then...

everything in life is fated.

All the best..

wow, I didnt know this... good info!!
There was a few times she was dry down there. Sometimes I will just switch to a new condom if I have extra... Once, I had used up all condoms and decided to stop because I was tired and the girl was feeling pain.. Heng, it did not break.
