External condoms can be used for vaginal, anal, or oral sex. Check it for damage, then hold the rim of the condom in one hand, pinch the tip with your thumb and forefinger, and roll the condom down your penis or dildo.
Internal condoms can be used for vaginal or anal sex. Get in a comfortable position, like lying on the bed, before putting the condom in. Then slide it inside. You should push the inner ring into your vagina as far as it can go until it reaches your cervix. Rest the outer ring of the condom on your vulva and hold it in place during intercourse. If the outer ring goes into the vagina during intercourse, be sure to pull it back out to prevent leakage.
