Hello! My partner and I like having sex, but I find its painful more often than not. I visited the gynecologist and she suggested that I use non-lubricated condoms without spermicide, flavorings, etc. The problem is, the guy I'm with is built very well, and I can't seem to find a condom that is large enough without added lubricants. Does anyone know of a brand/type we can try? Thanks!!!

Why would she suggest non-lubricated? Lubrication should help ease the pain, since it seems to mostly come from the fact he is large, right? Did she give any reason for these specifications?

She recommended non-lubricated condoms because there is a chemical called nonoxynol-9 is known for causing irritation if you are sensitive to it. Additionally, if you are sensitive to it, I'm told you increase your chances of contracting HIV- I'm not entirely sure why that is. I bought astroglide, which is nonoynol-9 free, but it doesn't help if the condom already has it on it.

If your concern is nonoxynol-9 you can use lubricated condoms, just make sure they're spericide free (non-9 is a spermicide). Read the box.

For larger condoms that aren't lubricated try Trojan Large (the green box, I'm not sure if that's they're actual name) or Trojan Magnum.

Stay the hell away from Lifestyle Mr. Big.

non-lubricated + large
Trojan Enz Large non-lubricated (the green box you mentioned) has been discontinued. I was unable to locate a replacement product that is both large and non-lubricated, made by Trojan or any other company.

On the plus side (pun intended), all the Magnum line condoms are non-9 free.

Trojan Enz
Trojan Enz is still sold at costco in packs of 40.
I hope that helps.
