Method Monday: The Female Condom

Happy Method Monday! Today we bring you the oft-misunderstood female condom—which you may or may not realize has been revamped in recent years to be more affordable and less, erm, squeaky. Yep, it squeaked before, now not so much. The revamped version is called the FC2, standing for—you guessed it—female condom 2. So, to review: less squeaking, lower price, new name, same (relatively) easy-to-use protection from unintended pregnancy and STIs. Good news, right?

A few more highlights:

  • As we’ve noted in the past, the female condom protects against HIV;
  • Female condoms are latex free, so if you or your partner are allergic to latex, they could be a great alternative;
  • Mary Ann Leeper, the woman who brought the new and improved FC2 into being, did an interview for SexReally.com that’s alive and well here on our tumblr.
  • Some even say that the female condom feels better than the male condom—and that inserting it can be sexy with the right partner.
  • The female condom can be inserted hours before it’s needed, meaning you don’t have to find a sexy way to whip it out and put it in in the moment—unless you want to.

What’s not to love about that?

Everyone should have the life they want, when they want it. And until someone is ready to have a baby, we believe they should have access to birth control.

That’s where we come in.

Bedsider makes birth control easier. How? By giving you everything you need to find it, get it, and use it well.

On Tumblr, we hope to keep you informed and entertained as we explore everything from sex, tech, culture, and politics to health and the most effective methods out there.
