Allergic to Latex?


No matter how turned on I am and everything, after a bit while using condoms I become very very dry. When used for too long, afterwards it feels like the skin right at the opening has been ripped apart. Even when I use lube, it gets painfully dry. Could this be a latex allergy??

it doesnt seem like latex allergy to me, because latex allergy typically would manifest with tiny blisters around the opening and the vestibular region. some people do not produce an adequate amount of natural lubricant, (ie, the secretions from the bartholin's glands), which could result in vaginosis.
my remedy would be to try using poly urethane condoms(they are also sold as ultra thin condoms.), as poly urethane is far smoother microscopically and would definitely help.and while using it, apply a generous dollop of ky jelly or any other similar water based lubricant.
this should give you relief.

Try some other brand.

yes you are allergic to latex. I had the same problem, they have different types of condoms so try those to see.

I hear that dryness it a symptom of being "Allergic to Latex" You really should see a doctor. Also, try wearing some of those powder-free, skin-tight, Latex gloves for about an hour. If you feel any irritation you might be allergic to Latex. However, the gloves must be skin-tight or it will not work. Who knows you might even grow to like Latex Gloves :-)
