Medical Conditions - Condom Allergy

Condoms are made mainly of latex, which is the main reason for having an allergy to condoms. Condom allergy causes frequent itchiness after sex. The localized allergic reactions are itchiness, bumps, swelling, and redness. In some cases, watery eyes with scratchy throat are also evident. These are avoided by using condoms made of other materials such as polyurethane or polyisoprene.
