Is it harmful to use codom?

Is it harmful to use codom?

Condoms are the best way to protect yourself against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unwanted pregnancy. Condoms are a barrier contraceptive made from latex rubber, a synthetic rubber called polyisoprene or a very thin plastic called polyurethane.

Condoms are available free from:
contraception clinics (sometimes called family planning clinics)
sexual health, or genitourinary medicine (GUM), clinics
some GP surgeries

You can also buy condoms from:
shops
pharmacies
supermarkets
garages
vending machines in some public toilets

When buying condoms, make sure that they carry the British Standards Institution (BSI) kitemark, or the European CE symbol as proof of quality. This means they have been tested to the required safety standards. Also, check that the expiry date is clearly visible on the packet.
