Spermacide Condoms the Reason For My Yest Infection? Posted: 09-08-05 08:21am
My boyfriend and I had sex for the first
time about a week ago. Then and every
time after that we checked the condoms for
leaks and everything. The condoms had
spermacide on them and I saw somewhere
that spermacide can affect the bacteria in
your vagina and it can give you a yeast
infection, which I know have. But then I
saw that a yeast infection is a early
pregnancy sign! I have been having all my
pms symptoms and should be starting my
period any day now. This was my first
time and his so I know its not an std.
Someone please give me some input! Megan

Probably a yeast or bacterial infection.
Go to the gyno to get in checked out. I
hope you didn't check the condoms with
water! You shouldn't have to check them,
they are inspected at the factory. Just
make sure he dosn't keep him in his
wallet, it can break down the rubber.
