Using Condoms

Hold up and hear us out before throwing out your love gloves. Although you may have heard from doctors to practice safer sex, low quality and unlubricated condoms are linked to an increased risk of UTI. This is possible because of increased friction and irritation to the vagina during intercourse. And using spermicidal agents with condoms and diaphragms can double your risk.

Try lubricated and high-quality condoms and diaphragms without spermicide to decrease the risk. You can also use unlubricated love gloves with a non-spermicidal lubricant.
