Does using condoms prevent pregnancy?

My friend and I were having a discussion about birth control methods. She said condoms are very effective for preventing pregnancy, but I've also heard different things. I just want to be sure about their effectiveness.

Yes, using condoms is a very practical way to prevent pregnancy. But they have to be used correctly every single time. Home tracking of cycles is okay, but relying only on that is very risky, so using a condom is much safer.

I used to panic so much about unplanned pregnancies early in my relationship. But once we learned how to use condoms properly and check them, we realized they are extremely reliable. Just use them correctly and you will be fine.

Yes, they definitely do! Condoms are highly effective when used right, plus they protect against STIs too. Just make sure to check the expiry date and store them properly so they don't tear.

Yes, they work, but only if you actually use them right! Trust me, as a sleep-deprived parent of twins, you don't want to make any mistakes with birth control. Buy good quality ones and use them every time.
