XL non-latex condom

Are there any non-latex XL condoms out there? Because I can't find them...

Unfortunately I have not been able to find any. The polyurethane condoms hardly stretch at all and won't even fit on someone with greater girth, but the newer polyisoprene(Lifestyles' Skyn and Durex Avanti) material stretches quite a bit more. It will still be uncomfortable and possibly painful, but at least it will go on.

The only option that I know of for a non-latex condom for larger men is a polyurethane female condom such as

GLYDE Health: Condoms for Her - Non-Latex Female Condoms

These are also about 8x more expensive, but they are the only option.

If you are simply looking for birth control and have a monogamous relationship where both you and your partner are not at risk for STDs then you could have your partner use a barrier method. However, I don't know any information about your situation other than the fact that you're looking for a non-latex large condom so I really can't be of much help. Sorry!

Female condoms can be a good choice. The greater expense can be reduced somewhat by reuse. The instruction sheet emphasizes that they are single use and, if screwing around with strangers, should not be reused. The WHO has been experimenting with reuse of female condoms in the third world and seems to be having some success.

After use, rinse them well but not vigourously and soak in a one-part white vineger to two parts water solution, stirring aorund occasionally to make certain the entire surface is sterilized. Air dry and use again.

Good news: men frequently report that they feel more real. That would be because the condom does not move with penis as a regular condom does.

Bad news: They are not quite as effective a regular condoms. Vaginal spermicide sould be used in the vagina AND in the condom tro protect agains marauding sperm which find it much easier to escape through the open end and drain directly onto the woman's parts.

Interesting. I always thought that female condoms would feel unnatural to a man because of the whole "plastic feel".
