What is the female condom?
The alternative to the male condom
The female condom, also known under the name of ?Female Condom? or ?Femidom? exists since 1998. Real alternative to the male condom , it is the only means of contraception entirely controlled by women: unlike the male condom, the condom feminine does not require the approval of her partner .
As effective as the male condom, it looks like a sheath with two rings at its ends. The first (smaller) ring is placed inside the vagina while the second takes place outside. (see user manual.)
Its material, polyurethane (the 2nd generation of Femidom is made of nitrile, hypoallergenic too) allows it to be "anti-allergic" or more precisely hypoallergenic , unlike latex. It can also be used with any lubricant based on water or silicone!
