Causes of Condom Allergy

Condom allergies are caused by the latex in the rubber, the lubricant that is used with the condom or both. For extra protection against pregnancy, several brands of condoms are coated with a spermicidal cream. This also tends to trigger an allergic response. The reaction appears within a few minutes / few hours of contact. Luckily, you can opt for non lubricated, non latex condoms, in order to prevent discomfort.

Condom Allergy Symptoms

One may develop the following symptoms:

• The most obvious symptom is a break out of rash around the genitals after a condom is used.
