Problem with condoms.?
Due to this problem i have, i don't have sex often b/c i don't want to get anything or get pregnant while doing it raw (even though i am on birth control, obviously that isn't enough)
My problem is this: i've notice since i've been having sex, frequently (one partner at a time, one in 2010 and last year) i've been getting allergic reactions to condoms. The first one in 2010, we used latex, and it would dry up and it was be extremely painful, but i will still do it b/c i really didn't want to do it in the raw. Year last, with my last partner i told him my situation, and my concern so we used a whole variety of condoms: latex, latex-free in different brands and prices . All with the same effect, it was very painful i will would dry up.
The only one so far, that i used with my last guy i was with that didn't dry me up was trojan's fire and ice? But it would constantly break and it was pretty uncomfortable for the both of us.
I really wanna practice safer sex that has my partner using condoms 100% of the time instead of 40-60%, luckily i am STD free etc, i am pretty picky in who i have sex with but due to my problem, i am even more limited with everything.
Please, can someone tell me what is wrong with me and what condom i can recommend my next partner to use?
Thank you so much.
Edit: i would dry up no too long after they penetrated me, it's was like at least less then a minute.
But i never tried lube, i would definitely try that next time, thank you!

You definitely need to try lubricant. Not only should it help with your problem, but it will make the condom even more effective. Put a few drops of lube inside the condom, and then put more outside of the condom. You can also put some in yourself. By making condoms more slippery, lubricant significantly reduces the chances that the condom will break. Sensation is also enhanced because lubricant decreases friction. Never use oil-based products, such as Vaseline, with a latex or non-latex rubber condom. Use only water or silicone-based lube with latex and non-latex rubber condoms.

Have you tried using lube in addition to condoms? That could be your whole problem.
Also, if you are having really long sex sessions, that could contribute to the drying feeling. I used to feel that way as well when I had sex for a long while with a condom. Both lubrication on condoms and your own won't last forever.
I would try some lubrication, maybe some sensitive skin kind that is water based in addition to the condom, and see if that helps. If not, you may truly be allergic to the condoms or even the lubrication on the condom as well.

same thing happens to me, it happens because of the material of the condom it's just drying. so you have to use lube and you'll be fine.. and you shouldn't continue to have sex when you're in pain like that. imagine rubbing a latex glove against your skin you get like a burn on your skin, imagine your lady parts! you can really hurt yourself

lubrication might be an option. if you're not allergic to latex, then that must mean you're naturally not as lubricated. i think you can get that stuff from Wal Mart.
