Hi,
Thanks for using HealthCareMagic.

I can understand your concern.Condom can be burst either due to poor quality of latex or inappropriate method of use. So please follow teh instruction given in pack of condom that how to use it or you can learn easily thorugh internet.Use good quality of condoms from market like manforce, kamsutra.

There is no relation between to HIV infection and causing bursting of condom.

In actual you misunderstood I guess.If one partner have HIV and during sexual activity if by chance condom burst, chance of spreading to infection to other partner is there.

If you are doing sex with your wife and both of you do not have any infection,there is no need to worry even if condom bursts.

The only drawback of condom burst in your case is your wife can become pregnant though you both do not wish.

Hope I have answered your query.
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
