I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the symptoms of a condom allergy are.
I think i may have an allergy to latex but i'm not sure as i have no clue what the symptoms are. (yeah, i feel a little dumb!) <IMG SRC="rolleyes.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
I'm worried it may be an sti, so any info will be appreciated so i can do something about it a.s.a.p.
I posted someting similar in the sex forum but i wasn't sure which forum 2 post i've put it in both! <IMG SRC="tongue.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
Anyway, any advice is VERY welcome. <IMG SRC="confused.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> <IMG SRC="frown.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

It could be a reaction to the spermicide used, so perhaps try using condoms that don't say 'spermicidally lubricated'.
The other option might just be too much friction. In which case, lubrication is the answer.
STI's also should be considered, and if none of the above work to relieve the symptoms, you should see your GP, or pop along to the local GUM clinic.
Don't do that. It's very annoying <IMG SRC="wink.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
