Barrier: The condom covers the penis, so that sperm are deposited into the condom and do not enter the cervix to fertilize the egg.

Condom: The most important fact about using condom for contraception is to put it on before penetration. Also to withdraw the penis with the condom in place shortly after ejaculation while holding it agaist the base of the penis, avoiding any spillage of semen.
