Is the oil on the condom harmful to the female body?

Adults all know that there is a thick liquid on the outside of condoms, which can have a lubricating effect, but many people worry about whether this oil will cause harm to the human body. So, is the oil in condoms harmful to the human body? How can women distinguish between allergic reactions to condoms?

Is the oil in condoms harmful to the human body?

Condoms are a method of contraception for many men and women today. Compared with inserting an IUD into the uterine cavity, condoms have less irritation in contraception and can prevent a large number of unmarried pregnancies. The contraceptive effect of condoms is also very high. When you use a condom for the first time, you will find that there is always a lot of oil on it. It is grease, which is not harmful to the human body and is an oil that can be absorbed by the body.

There are many types of grease, generally we divide them into mineral grease, natural plant grease, animal grease and synthetic grease according to their sources.

In addition, according to the main use, it can be divided into mechanical lubricants and personal lubricants.

The grease on the condom is a synthetic human lubricant. Its main component is dimethyl silicone oil, which is a non-oil based grease. Generally, reliable manufacturers use oral grade grease, which mainly has a lubricating effect and is harmless to the human body. Of course, we do not recommend that users try this kind of methyl silicone oil, because this kind of mineral oil itself is not easy to dissolve, and it cannot be absorbed by the body, so it takes a long time to be excreted after entering the body.

The use of lubricants in human sexual life has a long history. In the early days, people used natural plant oils such as cooking oil and vegetable oil. However, due to limited ingredients, the effect is not ideal. It is easy to stain clothes and is not easily absorbed by the body.

Later, we also tried to use glycerin, body oil, shower gel, massage oil and other oil-based mineral oil substances as lubricants. This kind of substance is usually too sticky and difficult to clean. It is easy to cause residue after use, and may even block the urethra of both parties after use, causing painful urination. It will also destroy the stability of the condom and cause unmarried pregnancy, all of which are harmful to the body.
