Can you tell if condoms break? I usually put water in them to check for holes but could the holes be too small for water to get through?

Yes, condoms can break. That's why they say on the box that no method is 100% effective.

It can happen because of friction, i.E. That there's not enough lubrication and it causes a tear. It can also happen if there's not enough room left in the tip, and the force of the ejaculation can cause it to pop.

Try trojan. They're a pretty good brand that we haven't had any problems with.

Yes, condoms can break! I got pregnant because a condom broke and I didnt know it broke until afterwards. Be careful.
