NOT ALL CONDOMS WORK against preventing STIs/STDs

[Step1LoveYourself]

I hope others were already aware of this, because I was not.

When used properly, latex condoms reduce the risk of transmission of herpes. Long story short, the condoms I liked the most and used to use with a past partner were made with with lambskin and WITHOUT latex.

Latex condoms provide an essential barrier to STD pathogens. Any condom that is made without latex puts your partner at an equivalent risk to that of using no protection! Make sure to do your homework before purchasing condoms without latex. By law, condom brands must state on their packaging if their product DOES or DOES NOT protect against STD transmission. 

Remember, the more knowledgeable we are, the better we will be at informing and protecting others.
