Use Male condoms with a latex sensitivity or allergy
If you have latex allergiy and want to use condoms, choose the condom made from polyurethane or polyisoprene. Polyurethane condoms are made out of plastic. While they feel different than latex condoms, they’re highly effective. Polyisoprene condoms are made out of synthetic latex. They’re safe for most people with latex allergies because allergic reactions are usually caused by natural contaminants in latex, rather than the rubber itself. Polyisoprene condoms feel more like latex condoms than polyurethane options.
If condoms cause your allergy but not balloons or your doctor’s gloves, you may be allergic to something other than the latex. Different brands use different lubes, spermicides, and chemicals. It may help to try a different brand of condom. Email: [email protected]
