I'm not positive how they test if you are
allergic but are they spermicidal? Many
women have an adverse affect to
spermicide. However if you are allergic
to latex they do have latex free condoms.
Why dont you try buying some and see if
the same thing happens? If it doesnt then
you know it was the latex but if it still
persists with the non-latex then I would
suggest seeing a doctor.

talk to my doctor. I know its not
something like an infection or sexually
transmitted infection cuz I have been
tested and there is nothign wrong.. I do
not think they r spermicides in them but I
will try the non latex ones

the Pill Posted: 12-13-03 16:17pm
Hey hey
hey I dont want to go on the pill.. I
dont trust it.. I got pregnant when I was
on the pill and I was on it for 5 6 months
when I got pregnant and I took it properly
so I know that it was working.. I dont
want to go back on the pill but I want
protection.. Spermicides and sponges r
way to expensive to use everytime .. So I
am hopin I can find out whats behind this
and make so I can still use condoms.. For
$ purposes ya know
thanks for the suggestion
!
