Condom use...how long...?!


Question: Condom use...how long...?
I have had some condoms for awhile that are unused. Just wondering how long unused condoms last without going bad

Answers:

They should have a use by date on the packet. I think the maximum is about 3 years, but I'd rather get new ones then use one that's been in a packet for more then a year.



You really should not keep them around for more than 3-4 months despite the expiration date on the package. Depending on where they are kept, they can degrade faster (i.e. warmer areas, keep them in cool areas).



Check the expiration date



I'd say look at the package and see what the "use by" date is.



i say after a month throw em away..



a year..
