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 gave you a very general answer, if your seeking something higher than a over the counter product. Your best bet is to consult with a doctor not a open forum.

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.

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.

The best thing to do is go to your pharmacy and ASK them what brands they sell.

How about a vasectomy?

That's COMPLETELY latex-free.

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

I actually owned and ran a Pharmacy - so, yes, there are a lot of brands out there. That doesn't mean YOUR Pharmacy carries them - so ask the Pharmacist. And by the way, most condoms ARE used by males so you really didn't have to write that part.

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!

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

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.

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. :(

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

I beg to differ. If I've told you what you need to do, then it is 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.

If you're married and just not ready for kids yet---not an option.

The OP doesn't state whether he is married to his partner.

The OP also hasn't been back in about 4 months.

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!!

Do you get that at the local sausage maker? ;)

Natual skin condoms offer ZERO std protection... a point to remember.

? Question gone horribly wrong. :)

Yep but it's non-latex. The one I linked isn't lamb skin it's a substitute for latex

Yep but it's non-latex. The one i linked isn't lamb skin it's a substitute for latexLatex alternatives are nessessarily natural skin.

Polyethylene condoms will block STD's as well as Latex for those with latex allergies, but natural skin types don't. One should not assume that they are safe for one night stands (natural skin ones).

I always wondered about those lamb skin condoms...

... don't lamb skin have pores?!

I appears they do... read on:


Lambskin

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.

I linked the polyethylene ones.

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.

I don't know if it's a method of birth control but there are men I would only consider having sex with if they had a paper bag (or plastic, I suppose) over their head.

Is this what you mean?:D

LOL... not really but that works too

I was talking about the substitute they used instead of latex

I had a friend some 25 years ago who used a rubber glove... she ended up pregnant. :p

I got to ask... which um... "finger" was used?

I have quite a few questions here, any one of which will get me banned for life, so I am just going to go to another thread and think this over.

Your poor bunny avatar...

This is why I don't think non-fda approved birth control works

Though I have heard a lot of condom misuse stories that hurt the bunny more...

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

This is why I don't think non-fda approved birth control works


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.

Starbucks... are you serious?

... ARE. YOU. SERIOUS!?

Holy mother of...

I got to say, working in a clinic, you run into some pretty... stupid people.

Darwin was wrong.

It is near impossible to see someone store everything to the letter...

I know it may spend time in the hot car and in Texas (not at the pharmacy) I know most prefer there houses at 80ish in the summer

I know it's not completely effective

There was this one time where someone used 4 different types of birth control...

It all failed... I bet because of the way it was stored... In the bathroom where the temp went from hot and moist to cold and dry (being all above or below the recommended levels)

The OP doesn't state whether or not he is married to his partner.

The OP also hasn't been back in about 4 months.



I think he hasn't been back - except to give additional reddies - because he's (once again) suspended. Now he has plenty of time to talk to Pharmacists about condoms.

Oh, I love it - just when I thought I'd heard every stupid question that a Pharmacist can be asked - I hear a new one!

Classic!

At one time I dated an OB/GYN and he had some pretty good stories, too.

(Although I must admit I'd like to hear more about the rubber glove and J9.)

I second that Judy, come on J9, tell us a story. :)

Okay, you asked for it...

My girlfriend in high school used a rubber glove as a form of protection with her boyfriend. She got pregnant... DUH!!

I was blamed for the pregnancy by her parents because her and I were not on the phone while they were at work.

Her parents made her have an abortion... she now some 25 years later... has 6 kids, 3 grand kids... and 5 ex husbands.

No, we don't keep in touch much.

Wow, 5 ex's? Wow!

I had a friend in high school that got pregnant with every imaginable birth control device on the market. Her doctor joked that she could probably get pregnant if she hung up her coat next to a mans coat. She was mortified, only 16, but they got married and had the baby. She's an exception, still married to the same man, 2 grown kids and still happy. That doesn't happen very often. :)

Her son is my Godson, he's 21 years old now, okay, now I feel old. :(

I'd like more details about the "use" of the rubber glove, please. Does one, umm, cut off the fingers or wear the entire glove or exactly how does this work? If so, where does one (exactly) WEAR the glove - ?

On your hand Judy, that's why it didn't work. ;)

I don't know the specifics, I wasn't there, although I got blamed for the pregnancy. LOL

Apparently because it was a RUBBER glove, they considered it to be as effective as a "rubber"

Is it too late to call and ask for details? Well, probably so. Never mind.

Too late? You are talking to the gal who works all night. LOL

Some of those rubber gloves are pretty tight, doesn't say much about his, um, manhood. ;)

I'm, umm, working on the five fingers in the rubber glove myself.

... I mean, I have rubber gloves because I used to work in the hospitals and such...

... but do people regularly keep latex gloves around the house?

My first thought would have been seran wrap.

I have latex gloves sneezy because I hate getting my hands dirty. I use them when I stain or paint, and when I clean. You can buy them in bulk at Costco. :)

Seran wrap? Really? Condoms are cheaper. ;)

:eek:Did you just go there? Ooooh, you did! :p

Why not use tin foil, that works for freshness, but it can chafe. ;)

Plus that crinkling noise would probably be distracting.

OKay, we're WAY off topic now.

Closed.

Go talk dirty about this somewhere else, you sexaholics!
