Internal condom health benefits
– Effectiveness. The internal condom is more effective with spermicide. When used properly, 95 out of every 100 individuals using it will manage to prevent pregnancy.
– STI protection. Internal condoms help protect you from most STIs, including HIV.
– Allergy-friendly. They’re good for people with latex allergies. Unlike external condoms, internal condoms are made out of plastic or synthetic rubber. You can use them even if you are allergic to latex.
Internal condom lifestyle benefits
– Putting on a condom can be part of increasing sexual arousal and desire before penetration. If you feel comfortable talking to your partner about sexuality, discuss how you can use the condom to increase pleasure in your sexual experiences.
– The outer ring may stimulate the clitoris and make sex more pleasurable for women.
– It gives women and other users more control over protected sex. If your partner will not wear an external condom, but you still want protection against STIs, an internal condom is a good option.
– It has a soft, moist texture that feels more natural during sex than when using external latex condoms.
– No prescription is necessary, and you don’t need to have a consultation to buy an internal condom.
– It can be used with both oil- and water-based lube.
– It stays in place even if the man loses his erection.
– They have a shelf life of up to five years.
– They don’t require any special storage conditions. This is because they are made of polyurethane, a material that does not deteriorate in humid conditions (4).
