Description
Durex Real Feel Condom 3s by Reckitt is a next-generation, non-latex condom designed to provide a natural, skin-on-skin feeling for enhanced intimacy and connectivity.
Name
- Brand Name: Durex Real Feel Condom 3s
- Common Name: Non-latex condom
Composition
Durex Real Feel condoms are made from polyisoprene, a technologically advanced, non-latex material, which offers a natural skin sensation. They are transparent, lubricated with regular silicone lube, and feature a teat end. This makes them suitable for individuals with natural rubber latex protein allergies.
Uses
These condoms are primarily used for:
- Contraception: To prevent unwanted pregnancies
- STI Prevention: To help protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV/AIDS
- Enhanced Sensation: Designed to maximize pleasure through intimacy, sensitivity, and connectivity by mimicking a natural skin-on-skin feeling
Dosage and Administration (How to Use)
- Always check the expiry date on the condom wrapper before use. If the individual package is damaged, discard it and use a new one from an undamaged pack.
- Carefully tear open the wrapper from the serrated edge, avoiding damage from fingernails or sharp objects.
- Ensure the condom roll is on the outside. Squeeze the teat end to remove any trapped air and place it on the tip of the erect penis before any sexual contact.
- Roll the condom down to the base of the penis. If it starts to roll back up or feels too tight during sex, roll it back down immediately. If it comes off, use a new condom.
- Soon after ejaculation, and while the penis is still erect, hold the condom firmly at the base before withdrawing.
- Dispose of the used condom in a bin, wrapped in tissue. Do not flush it down the toilet.
- Use a condom only once.
Side Effects
While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience:
- Irritation or discomfort: Mild irritation, dryness, or a warming sensation may occur, typically resolving on their own.
- Allergic reactions: Although made from non-latex material, some individuals sensitive to natural rubber latex may still have sensitivity to polyisoprene condoms, potentially leading to itching, mouth swelling, or difficulty breathing. If irritation or any allergic reaction occurs, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
- Vaginal dryness: Reported by some users of condoms.
Precautions
- Effectiveness: No method of contraception provides 100% protection against pregnancy, HIV, or sexually transmitted infections.
- Lubricants: Only use water-based or silicone-based lubricants with Durex Real Feel condoms. Oil-based products (e.g., petroleum jelly, baby oil) and some topical medicines can damage condoms. Additional lubrication is recommended for anal sex.
- Choking Hazard: Condoms may present a choking hazard, so keep them out of reach of children.
- Damage: Be careful with sharp objects like fingernails or jewelry when handling condoms, as they can cause damage.
- Oral Sex: If used for oral sex first, a new condom should be used for any subsequent vaginal or anal sex.
- Medical Consultation: Consult a pharmacist or doctor within 72 hours if a condom leaks or bursts during sex, or if irritation or discomfort persists.
Storage
Store condoms in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures (under 30°C/104°F). Keeping them in a self-contained, discreet location such as a bedside drawer or cupboard can help maintain their integrity and effectiveness.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are Durex Real Feel Condoms used for?
Durex Real Feel Condoms are used to provide protection against unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). They are designed to offer a natural skin-on-skin feeling to maximize pleasure and intimacy during sexual intercourse.
What makes Durex Real Feel Condoms unique?
Durex Real Feel Condoms are made from polyisoprene, a technologically advanced non-latex material. This material is designed to provide a natural, skin-on-skin sensation, making them suitable for individuals with latex allergies while offering high levels of protection. They are pre-lubricated with silicone lube and feature an easy-on shape.
How do Durex Real Feel Condoms work?
Durex Real Feel Condoms act as a barrier to prevent sperm from entering the female reproductive tract and to reduce the transmission of STIs. To use, carefully tear open the wrapper, ensuring the roll is on the outside. Squeeze the teat end to remove any trapped air, place the condom on the tip of the erect penis, and roll it down to the base.
Are Durex Real Feel Condoms safe for people with latex allergies?
Yes, Durex Real Feel Condoms are specifically designed for individuals with latex allergies. They are made from polyisoprene, a non-latex material, and undergo dermatological testing to ensure minimal potential for induced delayed hypersensitivity (Type IV allergy).
What are the possible side effects?
Direct side effects from the condom material are minimal, as they are non-latex. However, some individuals sensitive to natural rubber latex may also experience sensitivity to polyisoprene condoms. If irritation or an allergic reaction occurs, stop using them and consult a doctor. In rare cases, individuals have reported allergic reactions like mouth swelling, difficulty breathing, and itchy skin.
Are Durex Real Feel Condoms safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Condoms are generally considered a safe barrier method of contraception during pregnancy (to prevent STIs) and breastfeeding. However, it is always advised to consult a healthcare professional before use if your partner is pregnant or breastfeeding, as a precaution.
Can Durex Real Feel Condoms be used with lubricants?
Yes, Durex Real Feel Condoms are compatible with water-based and silicone-based lubricants. Avoid using oil-based lubricants (such as petroleum jelly, baby oil, or some topical medications) as they can weaken the condom material and increase the risk of breakage.
What precautions should be taken?
Always check the expiry date on the wrapper before use. Open the package carefully, avoiding sharp objects like fingernails or teeth, which can damage the condom. Ensure the condom is rolled the correct way before placing it on the penis. Durex Real Feel Condoms are for single use only. If discomfort or irritation persists after use, or if topical medicines are being applied to the penis or vagina, consult a healthcare professional.
What happens if a dose is missed?
This question is not applicable as Durex Real Feel Condoms are a barrier method of contraception and protection against STIs, not a medicine with a dosage regimen.
What happens if a condom breaks or slips?
If a condom leaks or bursts during use, or if it slips off, seek medical assistance as soon as possible, ideally within 72 hours. Emergency contraception may be considered to prevent pregnancy, and medical advice should be sought regarding STI exposure.
How should Durex Real Feel Condoms be stored?
Condoms should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures (below 40°C or 104°F), and high humidity. Keep them in their original packaging and away from sharp objects or chemicals that could damage the material. Avoid storing them in wallets or cars, as these environments can degrade the condom.
