He's 16 and well..."experimenting" with condoms. To me it sounds like a good problem to have. I mean you were 16 years old once too, it's not that you don't know what it's like.
And it's not like you can stop anything from happening. If anything, (overly) strict parents only create sneaky kids. If you want to do anything about it, just encourage him to use them if he does decide to take things up with ole girl
If anything, just know my mom found out what I was doing when I was 15. She is the Chief Pediatric Nurse at an inner city Baton Rouge clinic, and was a former regular nurse at another inner city BR clinic during the 90's. She bust in my room, dumped literally a walmart bag full of condoms from work on my bed, and told me some nice little stats about the STD rate in Baton Rouge and shared a personal work story or two. Nothing you can tell your son is going to be as jarring/awkward as that.
edit: and she STILL does that to this day, a full four years later. I have more condoms than I know what to do with. I'm flattered that she thinks I'm getting it more than I actually am, I guess. I'd be more than happy to send you some that uhh...how can I elegantly state this? Well some that don't fit.
