dont want to catch any sexually
transmitted diseases, or become pregnant,
and i am allergic to latex, so is their
another way to protect my self apart from
having the pill.. is their another type of
condom ?
Contraceptive pills can't and won’t
protect you from sexually transmitted
diseases. Condoms, however, can protect
you from both STDs and an unwanted
pregnancy. There are non-latex condoms on
the market that you can buy and use. You
can consult your local pharmacist for
product information.
