Hey I'm male looking for a list of non latex condoms or other non latex alternative oh and she can't take the pill I screws up her cycle.
If you are in the US, any major drug or chain store should have them available.
Yes I am aware what I am looking for is to see what is out there that I am not aware of. Just want to see if I have more options thanks though.
Your legal options is the local pharmacy. What ever you need, you should find it.
I would make sure to use non-latex condoms on TOP of whatever other birth control SHE decides to use.
And as far as her options, she needs to see a physician. There are very few over-the-counter birth control options for women, and a complete check-up is required before any doctor will prescribe birth control of any sort.
Apparently no one seems to understand what I am asking for. I use non latex condoms I only know of two or three brands I was wondering if there were any others or if there might be other options just for me there is nothing a doctor can give that does not mess up her cycle.

I am asking for specific brands of condoms or other things that are non-latex that I as a male can use. If you can't answer don't respond.
No need to be so rude... There are different products throughout the world, and from pharmacy to pharmacy, each brand is specific to the area and the pharmacy. Since this is a worldwide web site you risk getting answers from everywhere.Quote:

How about a vasectomy?Quote:

And just an addition about your girlfriend. If the pill messes her cycle up. Has she thought ab out IUD's or maybe Depo-Provera (the needle) I've been on depo for ohh goodness YEARS now. There is a risk with it for bone density problems. I have to be scanned for it every two years. It is the only BC I have come across besides internal devices that does not mess with my system. Though with some users of depo they can bleed constantly and need to be taken off it. You may not bleed at all. And in some rare cases you will still have your peroid but less often. Like once every twelve weeks. It can be expensive if you don't have a medical plan. In canada it costs me around 49.00 once every twelve weeks for it. Which isn't bad in my opinion. The shot goes either in your arm or your butt cheek (where the muscle is bigger) though alternating between places is what the doctor reccomends. Me personally I only get it in my arms

And don't EVER send me a PM again - if you don't have the intestinal fortitude (which means guts) to post it on the board, keep it to yourself!
No need to disagree with me. I'm sorry, but you aren't going to get specifics here. As far as I know, we only have one member who has ever run a pharmacy.Quote:
eriknugent i don't mean to be rude but no one will answer the question in a specific manner that I requested sorry again I was looking for specifics most pharmacies only know what they supply
You have two choices here that I can see... Go to your local pharmacy and see what THEY carry, or follow Synnen's advice and get your tubes clipped, tied and burned.
eriknugent, do some research, why should we do it for you, especially when your rude when you do get answers.
Google is a great tool, use it, learn it, love it. I'm tired of doing other peoples research for them.
Also, read the rules, disagrees are for factually incorrect answers only, not because you didn't like the answer. :(
I beg to differ. If I've told you what you need to do, then it is an answer.Quote:
asking for specifics and being told to go some where else is not an answer it may be what I need to do but it is not an answer
Once again, my advice was not factually incorrect, so you have no right to give me a reddie. It's against the rules of the site. Rules you were required to read before using this site.
I suggest you read them now, because if you continue this you won't last long here.
Thank you.
Best birth control is not to have sex at all...
If you're married and just not ready for kids yet---not an option.Quote:

Oh, has it been that long? There was so much activity that I didn't even look at the date.
... why did we even bother with this then?
Actually Synn, he came today just to give me a reddie. But he hasn't responded to anyone.
Ah, can't see it anymore on their profile when the last login was--just when the last post was.
My apologies. Carry on, then.
Well, in that case...
... ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA!!

I always wondered about those lamb skin condoms...
... don't lamb skin have pores?!
I appears they do... read on:Quote:

Condoms made from one of the oldest condom materials, labeled "lambskin" (made from lamb intestines) are still available. They have a greater ability to transmit body warmth and tactile sensation, when compared to synthetic condoms, and are less allergenic than latex. However, there is an increased risk of transmitting STDs compared to latex because of pores in the material, which are thought to be large enough to allow infectious agents to pass through, albeit blocking the passage of sperm.[86] Lambskin condoms are also significantly more expensive than other types.

Polyethylene is a matériel also used in plastic grocery bags. (though the condom is much more effective than a plastic grocery bag and I recommend the condom more than the bag as a form of birth control.)
Actually, Red Cross found that many people are allergic to latex gloves (latex being the key world not 'gloves'). So as of Jan. lst we are only allowed to use the blue nitrite gloves. Could be the OP's g/f was allergic to latex, that's why he was asking. Its too bad people can't be specific in these posts and misunderstandings wouldn't arise. IMO if that was the case here.

Is this what you mean?:D

4 teens 1 condom
1st couple put it on
2nd couple then turned it inside out and used it again
The second couple got pregnant by the first couple
They need better health classes in Texas...
But one very interesting day as a pharm tech
Heck, FDA approved birth control is not 100% effective either. I can name many many people who followed directions to the T and still have children.Quote:
