Hi there

Yes it is safe to use a male condom when you are having sex during your fertile time as are 82% effective. They generally fail if people don’t use them correctly for example if they slip off or if used with oil based products as lubricants, only use water-based ones. Condoms are the only contraception to offer protection against infections and pregnancy. Always check they have a quality mark and are not out-of-date.

I hope this helps

Best wishes

Katherine
