Can female condoms be used twice?

The Female Condom is approved for a single use only, but re-use has been reported in several countries. WHO have conducted studies to investigate the safety of disinfection, washing, drying, storage and re-lubrication, followed by re-use, and WHO has convened two technical consultations to review data from these studies. WHO suggests use of a new male or female condom for every act of intercourse, where there is a risk of unintended pregnancy and/or STI/HIV infection. Recognizing the urgent need for risk-reduction strategies for women who cannot or do not access new condoms, WHO has developed a draft protocol for the safe handling and preparation of used Female condoms intended for reuse. WHO does not recommend or promote reuse, but will make available the protocol, together with guidelines on programmatic issues, to programmer managers who intend to evaluate its feasibility and application in local settings.
