Hi,

Using a condom is one of the most effective contraception methods. All methods have their own pluses and minuses, and also failure rate. The failure rate in Condoms is also very very minimal and can be addressed by emergency contraception too. So discuss with a doctor as couple and choose the most effective way.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Jagadeesan, Psychiatrist
