9) condoms Chedder
Hiya, I just wanted to know when you buy them from the chemist do you have to pay and what do you say? Do they ask you questions like how many you want and stuff? And can a lad wear 2 in case 1 rips or something?

You can buy them: at the chemists, in gent’s loos (maybe less embarrassing?), Brook Advisory Centres, any family planning clinic and at young people’s clinics.

They cost around £3.50 for three from chemists supermarkets and corner shops.

Always use a new condom each time. 

When buying condoms, choose ones displaying the British Standards Kite mark. These will definitely be reliable. Also, check the expiry date.

If you wear two, it makes the top one more likely to slip off (could be messy), and more likely to split. If you put it on properly, then it shouldn't split. If you're worried about it, then perhaps you should talk about her going on the pill too, just to be safe. Reply

You just go into the shop get some and buy them, the shop assistant won't ask you any questions and there sold in packets so they wont ask you how many you want! :) Just get normal, its unlikely they will rip too, but get a pack that has a mixture of condoms in. Reply

You can get them free from a sex clinic. I wouldn't bother going to buy them from a chemist if you can just get them free. I've heard that if a boy uses 2 condoms then they're more likely to split because of the friction. Reply

When you buy condoms from the chemist you have to pay, but it's not embarrassing. You don't get asked loads of questions as they should be on a shelf, so you just pick which ones you want and go pay. It’s easy really!!!  Reply

Yeah, you have to pay for condoms if you get them from a shop or you can get them in machines in toilets. if you have a local family planning clinic (this is for teen counselling and information) then they give out free condoms. I don’t know about you, but at my school the school nurse gives out free condoms.

If you go to a family planning clinic they may ask you a few questions, but only to make sure you're doing the right thing, etc. In a shop they wouldn't ask you any questions.  Reply
