    I am on BC-yasmin. I just got three days of anti biotics today for my wisdom teeth and the doc said it would interfere with my birth control and we needed alternate means.
    I am allergic to latex and hate condoms. I am very smally built down there and one of my fingers wont reach far enough for a sponge (I have a hard time w/ tampons unless they're junior sized) my bf's fingers are longer than mine do you think he could put in and take the sponge out without it causing me too much pain and then do you think pulling out will work the other times? I'm still on the birth control. My anti biotics are over on the 10th and I am seeing him the 19th. The oral surgeon said it would affect my cycle the whole month and we needed to use back up until my next period (30 days from now) we will only be sleeping together the 19th through the 23rd I think when I have to come back home for work.
    mon-latex condoms are out of the question, at least the first time when I get there and last time when I leave. Spermicides hurt me and burn me.
    what can we do?
    I am so upset I feel like I'm gonna cry I thought everything was going to be gravy since I was on the pill.
    please help :)

    I don't see why he couldn't insert the sponge for you. It's cool that yall are close enough that he would feel comfortable doing that!

    songe help please does it look like an actual spnge. since it's new on the market again neither of us have seen one so while he's happy to help but he doesn't wanna hurt me and how safe is pulling out...like if he or I wanted him to come in my mouth or my breasts would we still need a sponge? neither of us really are for abortion so I just need help on what alternatives there are

    MaggieSuagr please help you always know a lot abotu thins stuff...also can we put lube on the spnge to make it goe in smoother? my mom knows my tampon problems and said it would be hard to get one in me with what sized tampons I wear because you put it in before your wet...al goes in fine when im aroused and expanded and wet but prior to that it bites...

    A non-latex condom sounds like the least hassle.

    I would agree on the condoms - the sponge proberly would be a mood killer and it may get stuck or whatever

    I would go for the condoms or dont have sex for a while

    I also vote for a polyurethane condom Lyns... they may not be fun but they're better than getting pregnant when you aren't ready for it at all, right? Plus they prevent the spread of STD's (even if you guys are tested and come back clean, it's nice to have that safety)

    If he is gonna be hanging out in your vagina he should have no problem putting a sponge in it.

    he doesn't at all it just says it takes to finger to put it inand three to take it out and Im not that accomodating. i found this stuff caled vaginal film in target today though and it just takes one finger to put it in mine still arent long enough because it has to be near the cervix but his will and then i wont be hurting from it and he wont be worried about hurting me.

    Lyns, you two could do plenty of other things to be intimate than just intercourse. Oral play for both would be plenty exciting, wouldn't hurt, be a hassle, or even cause a pregnancy or STDS. If condoms are such a pain and all the other options don't seem right for you, you can't go wrong with a bit of tongue-on-genital action! :D

    Vaginal Coantraceptive Film is a spermicide. It is also not very effective, as it doesn't always melt properly to cover the cervix. I used it once, and it came out in a lump, and I was terrified that it had just formed that lump without covering my cervix.

    NO, it may disintigrate it, and also cause problems with the spermicide.

    I would say that nonlatex condoms are your best bet. They are only for a month.

    I beleive they do now make cervical caps out of materials other than latex, but, it would be a hassle, unless you plan on using it a lot, as it has to be fitted, ordered, and it is not cheap. These also work better with spermicide, but can be used without.

    HippyFreek had a good idea. Sometimes you can just be intimate without actual intercourse. My dh have had to do this, several times, due to high risk pregnancies, or infections which made sex impossible. Ain't nothing wrong with some nice oral sex to tide you both over until the your next pack of pills and you are off of the antibx.

    I've had less than this, and I am 20 years older than her. What does that make me? Mother Superior? LOL!

    I want him to make love to me though sans barriers...but I dont wanna get pregnant and neither of us have stds. It's a really special thing and will be our first time together and I don't wanna use a condom my first time with him I feel way to close but if I got preggo it would ruin everything he has going for him (we're in different places I have a good job, can bring babies to work ect) but he is finishing up school and all that and is sooo bright and is going to be doing great things with his life and I dont want to ruin that but I hate condoms. It's an ld relationship so it's not just a month or a couple of weeks.

    what effects do anitbiotics seriously have on bc? whats the risk. i told him whatever he wants to do as back up is 100 percent his decision so i think ill just leave it to him to decide.
