An airfree space should be left by squeezing the tip and holding it up, till it is unrolled fully for better collection of semen. It should be used only once. It should not be inflated for testing. Vaseline oils, skin lotions, cold creams, should not be used as they increase the chance of rupture. If lubrication is needed, glycerine, K-Y jelly or spermicidal jelly can be used.
