    So based on my earlier question that I asked on here about the condom getting flushed down the drain and you all said that it WOULDN'T get trapped in the pipes and cause a clog, my question is when I flush the toilet makes huge bubbles and I looked it up and it said that it may be partially clogged, do you think it could be the condom wrapper?

    Still flushed content in toilet down

    I doubt the wrapper is the issue, but then, you never do know, huh? Try using a plunger...

    Good luck!

    Let's look at your earlier post.
    So I'm a total control freak and my boyfriend flushed a condom in its wrapper down the toilet and I have a septic system. It's been 2 days and it hasn't come up and it's flowing fine my questions are
    1.) is there a possibility it can clog and I'm screwed
    2.) could it come back up through the pipes? (It's stuffed in the wrapper)
    3.) could they find it some other way?
    I think that you have a blockage in your drain line, but I don't think is caused by a flushed condoms. If plunging doesn't get it then, the solution would be to pull the toilet and snake the drain line. Good luck, Tom
