If you use condoms perfectly every single time you have sex, they’re 98% effective at preventing pregnancy. But people aren’t perfect, so in real life condoms are about 87% effective. ref: https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/birth-control/condom/how-effective-are-condoms#

Low- but not 0. A normally functioning condom has a failure rate too. If you plan to be sexually active the discuss the best ways of protection with your partner and your doc to avoid worries. Good luck
