A member asked:

My girlfriend is allergic to condoms, what can she take?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Latex Allergy: Sounds like a latex allergy. If this is the case then birth control can be through many other methods, one of which can be with lamb skin condoms although they are less effective. A 2nd form of birth control is always recommended.
