Yes. Although no form of protection is 100% effective, all brands of latex and polyurethane condoms that are approved for sale in Canada have met Health Canada’s standards for safety and effectiveness. When used properly, a latex or polyurethane condom can significantly reduce the risk of unwanted pregnancy and the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
