If you live with roommates or family members, you may feel embarrassed about keeping condoms in a visible place. There are many secret places where you can leave condoms and where hardly anyone will find them. However, when hiding condoms, there are some precautions you should take to avoid losing or damaging them.

Steps

Method 1 of 2: Hide Condoms

1. 1 Place the condoms in a container. A good way to hide condoms is to place them in inconspicuous containers. This is a fairly safe storage method and is unlikely to get damaged.
   • An iron candy box, a toiletry bag, an unused jewelry box, or a coin purse are all great places to hide condoms.
   • One of the drawbacks to this method is that if anyone needs a peppermint or some change, they can find condoms. Therefore, it would also be a good idea to keep the container in a hidden place.
2. 2 Store condoms in your clothes. You can also hide condoms in your clothing. Put them in a sock, glove, coat pocket that you don't wear often, or in a winter hat. The main thing is to make sure that this item is stored in a safe place, from where no one will take it without your knowledge. Also, make sure that your clothes do not lie in a very hot or very cold place.
3. 3 Consider buying a condom sleeve. You can buy discreet covers and store condoms in secret. These cases often look like candy mint boxes or jewelry boxes. They can also look like simple containers without a pattern. They can be purchased online or at sex shops.
4. 4 Make a groove in the book. If you have an old book that you don't need, consider cutting a square hole in the center of the pages. You can put one or more condoms in there. Just be careful where you leave the book. If, for example, you put it on a coffee table, someone can open it. Your best bet is to pick an inconspicuous-looking book and hide it in the back of the bookshelf.

Method 2 of 2: Taking Precautions

1. 1 Store condoms at the proper temperature. The effectiveness of condoms changes when stored at very high or very low temperatures. Do not leave condoms in places where they can be exposed to heat or cold.
   • Do not hide condoms in the refrigerator, freezer, microwave oven, or oven. Exposure to heat or cold can reduce the effectiveness of a condom.
   • Do not store condoms in your car. If the car gets very hot or gets very cold, the condom may lose its effectiveness.
   • Condoms are best stored at room temperature, between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius.
2. 2 Do not store condoms in your wallet. Keeping condoms in your wallet is a bad idea, especially if you carry it in your pocket. Rubbing against your body can cause the condom to become very hot and less effective. In addition, it can tear.
3. 3 Do not leave condoms outside. Keeping condoms outside is a bad idea. Condoms are harmed not only by changes in temperature, but also by weather conditions. In addition, animals can stumble upon condoms. You don't want condoms to go missing or damaged when you need them.

Tips

• Try to hide condoms where the person cannot reach. Choose those parts of the house where households rarely gather or are looking for something.

Warnings

• Always use condoms during intercourse if you want to prevent pregnancy or to avoid sexually transmitted infections.
• Never use a safety pin or other sharp object to secure a condom in a secret place, otherwise you will punch a hole in it and it will not be effective at protecting against pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections.
