Latex allergy: You are exhibiting symptoms of latex allergy, and yes they can be secondary to condom use. You should use sheep skin condoms to avoid contact with latex, but careful they break easily.

Question 2

Different events: Allergies include not only rash but many other symptoms. Difficulty breathing, swelling of tissues are a few of the signs.

Question 3

i had sex for the first time some days after that i got a rash i was wondering if i could be allergic to latex condoms?

Accepted Answer

Possible: While it is possible that you are allergic to latex,  I would be wondering as well as to other explanations for a rash.   Given that a condom was used the possibility of a rash associated with a STD is unlikely.    I think the next step would be to have a physician look at the rash and go through the standard differential diagnosis.  I just wouldn't assume it is latex allergy.

Question 4

i have a latex rash on my vagina from condoms what do i do?

Accepted Answer

See doctor: A topical Hydrocortisone cream on the vulvae may help but avoidance is the key.   Beware of the fact that non-latex condoms do not prevent stds.

Question 6

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Why: Why would you have unprotected sex? It's a great way to get HIV or an std. If you have questions, you need to have your doctor look at you. You need to think the next time before having unprotected sex.

Question 8

Several things: This is a problem that necessitates a face-to-face meeting with your doctor.  This will allow him/her to examine you, ask specific questions. And possibly order tests to find out what's wrong and what to do to help you.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Latex allergy?: Maybe you're allergic to latex, which is pretty common. You can test it by cutting a small patch of the same condom type and taping it to the skin of your arm, and see if you get an itchy red patch. Or just switch to polyurethane condoms instead of latex.

Question 10

my boyfriend claims that after using a condom, he finds a rash around his penis, claiming for it to be uncomfortable, and irritating?

Accepted Answer

If he's: Using a latex condom, have him try a non-latex model. He may have a mild latex allergy. Try several brands and types to see what works best.
