A member asked:
Are condoms containing nonoxynol-9 more likely to break?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : Spermicide coated condoms do not break easily if used correctly. Remember they must be stored safely too. Keeping them in your car or in a hot location can cause the material to break down. Also never use one passed the expiration date.
