Condoms!

Stemming from Becky's post...if you and DH use condoms as your BC what kind do you use?  Do both you and DH like them? 

Re: Condoms!

  • When we did use them, we used the good ole standard Trojans.  We both hate them, in general, so we don't use them anymore but they worked at the time.
  • Honestly, I am almost dreading going off the bill and using them as our backup until we are ready, so much so that I may not stop the pill until we are 100% ready to TTC so that we don't have to use them.  That's how much I hate them and so does DH.
  • DH has a latex allergy so we use the Durex Avanti Bare condoms when we need to. They're made of something different than normal condoms, so they don't feel as weird IMO. HTH!

     

    ETA: If you're thinking of charting but still kind of apprehensive about it- I've been charting to TTA for 18 months now. And once you really get the hang of it condoms are only needed for a week and a half at most in a cycle. Big Smile

    I don't think I'm allergic, allergic to latex but depending on the brand sometimes it just doesn't feel right.  Maybe we'll try these.

    Ever.

  • We used condoms before the wedding as a secondary method (I'm on the pill) because we wanted to avoid by all means possible. I don't think we've used one once since we got married. I don't really mind them that much, it's just a pain to interrupt proceedings :) We almost always use Durex when we do use them.
  • We also use Durex (just the regular ones) and like those.

  • When we used to use condoms I believe it was always Trojans. Never tried anything else, but in general we both don't like them. I chart to TTA and I'll admit we haven't used one in almost a year, but I was also on BC for much of the past year.

    Ditto :)

  • I hate the feel of condoms and I'm pretty certain DH doesn't care for them either.  I'm on BC (and have been for years) so I can't even remember the last time we used one...
  • We use Durex Ultra Sensitive. They come in a purple box. They very comfortable for both of us and well priced!
