Any time i have any prolonged contact with rubber (more than a minute or two) I get a weird rash and any contacted skin gets tight (and often my throat too...)
I know it's a mild reaction.

My consern is condoms. Err... Thatwould be a nasty place to get a rash or worse.
As well as embarassing to explain if it ever gets bad enough I need an ER visit.

Aside from 'unprotected', which is even stupider of an idea, anyone know about alternatives to the regular latex condom that actually work?
(things with 25-50% effectivness rates do not actually work)

Thanks..

You're probably allergic to latex. Buy polyurethane condoms, your penis will thank you.

Or sheepskin, but I'm pretty sure they're expensive.

Well, if you dont want comdoms, bith control? But online you can order anti-itch condoms. Online pretty much you can order any type of condom imaginable. Some guys who are a little to small for regular condoms just order online. Happy searching and good luck :)

Its not a problem.

I know there are alternatives, but they are probably more available from larger drug stores. Perhaps go to one and ask the pharmacist.

Stay safe and happy 10,000 posts btw.

Non-latex condoms work, or other forms of protection (spermicide, sponges, etc) if STDs aren't an issue
