STD Prevention: Flying and Condoms
I will be doing a ton of flying over the next month (about 50,000 miles) and I want to be sure that, that much air travel will not impact condom safety due to air pressure, etc. If I do have sex I always use protection and want to make sure that significant air travel does not affect condom safety, but didn't know where to ask. There is little information online and I was hoping someone here might know. Anyone have an idea?

I could find nothing official on this, but condoms are shipped by plane all the time (either for retail or personal purchase from websites). Make sure to store them in a cool, dry place and you should be fine. :)
Good question!

Thank you! I have kept them inside a carry on in an inner area that that is not exposed to heat or moisture so hopefully okay.
Yep, should be fine.
Happy and safe travels!
