Latex Condom

For Latex Condom we have a term and definition in Sexually Transmitted Diseases.



Latex Condom (Sexually Transmitted Diseases)

A condom made of a special type of rubber called latex. It doesn't have holes in it so germs that cause STDs cannot get through it. SEMEN and PRE-SEMINAL FLUIDS can't get through either, so a LATEX CONDOM can also be used to prevent pregnancy. LATEX CONDOMS must be used correctly to be effective (to work). OIL-BASED LUBRICANTS such as Vaseline should not be used with LATEX CONDOMS as they can eat away at the condom's lining. It is safe to use WATER-BASED LUBRICANTS such as K-Y Jelly with CONDOMS.
