Condoms don't usually break, but they have been know to do so on occasion, and with disastrous results. Certain brands may be more prone to breaking than others. Check the expiration date on the package. Expired condoms may be more likely to break. But an old condom is better than no condom.
When lovemaking is done always check the condom for leaks. If you find any leaks or a condom breaks, to prevent pregnancy, immediately place two tablets of ascorbic acid (is vitamin C, without bio-flavanoids, the kind you would typically find in a drug or grocery store) inside to vagina, right next to the cervix. Also take internally 6-10 grams of ascorbic acid throughout the day, for the next 5-10 days. Use your own judgment to decide how much and how long. If you take Vitamin C on a regular basis, you may need to take more than someone who doesn't. These quantities have a tendency to constipate.
Progesterone prepares the uterus to receive a fertilized egg. Ascorbic acid interferes with the production of progesterone, therefore preventing the uterus from becoming a nourishing place for the egg, thus preventing implantation.
It is a good idea to place a drop of spermacide inside the condom, to kill the sperm right away. If a condom does break, the spermacidal lubricant on a condom is not enough to prevent pregnancy. If condoms are your sole form of birth control always be prepared for an emergency.
