Reproductive Health Uganda

There are a number of contraceptive options available. Discuss with your partner and talk to your health worker to help you choose the best method.

Male Condom
Condoms (rubber) are made of very thin rubber and shaped as a cylindrical casing. They come in different shapes and colours. Some even have flavors. The condom makes it impossible for sperm cells to make actual contact with the woman's genital organs. The condom should be rolled onto an erect penis prior to each sexual encounter. After having sexual intercourse, you must make sure you hold the condom while pulling the penis out of the vagina. The condom should only be used only once.
