Is boyfriend allergic to spermicide?

Yes, men and women can both be allergic.  It may be the spermicide or some other, non-active ingredient.\n\nI'm allergic to spermacide and it burns terribly!!

I wear a therapeutic magnetic necklace and take a couple of natural supplements. I am currently pregnant and can not take any other products, but will not go back to anti-histamines, because I have not had one problem. My uncle who has sever allergies and hay fever is now on the same products and wearing a necklace, and for the first time in years is not bed ridden sick.

Okay, first of all, semen has different textures for different men.  Second of all, said theoretical fifteen-year-old male is still not an adult therefore his body is still in that weird state of turning from child into an adult (think of it like a young rattlesnake -- once bitten, one could end up with nearly no toxin or heart-stopping amounts because the snake is a juvenile and has no control over venom production yet).\n\nSecond, if said young man chooses to have intercourse, he should use condoms EVERY TIME.  Condoms and spermicidal foam is an even better idea -- if you can *see* the birth control in use, you *know* it's there.  Watery semen can have quite a lot of spermatazoa in it and it only takes one tiny sperm cell to bring a child into the world equally miserable as said unhappy teenager.  (Happy teens don't use drugs.  Sorry, but they don't.)\n\nThird, said theoretical teenaged gentleman should consider not smoking, snorting, or shooting up anything because he has about 60 years left (if you don't die of an accident or overdose) and what he is doing right now is screwing up his future.

where you in the same room as the person who was using..might of had indirects exposure..just enough to cause it show but not enough to cause it to effect you....the guys body more than likely would have filtered it before sperm production but anything is possible

Because sperm is not injected into the bloodstream. However, some women are allergic to a man's sperm and will have a reaction to it. Sort of like someone with a peanut allergy and them accidently touching one.

It sounds like he could have some type of food or environmental allergy. Try bringing him for a second opinion.

Talk to an immunologist or dietitian. I am a dietetics student and... wait I am reading your post in its entirety.\n\nIt seems like total horseshit. The chances of being allergic to one food in an adult is 1 in 50. \n\nThere is no scientific research that food sensitivities exist to anything but msg, sulfites, and dairy products.\nGet tested an IgE allergy test from your doctor, and then explain your situation.

you might have an allergy to latex. latex is a common allergy.\n \nor it could be the spermacide that was on the condom that you are reacting to.\n\nor ask your partner if he has an std or if there is any risk that he may have been exposed to one (he may not know he has an std).\n\nor it could be something like a yeast infection. yeast infections are really common too and often go undiagnosed.\n\nyou should go to your doctor to confirm a yeast infection. you can either get a prescription to cure it or go with the over the counter medications. these work well too.\n\nbut definitely go to the doctor to know for sure what has affected your vagina.

Most likely they say that because some people experience irritation if they use spermicides too often.  If you and your partner don't have a reaction to the spermicide, then you should be fine.  However, there is some evidence that overuse of spermicide can make you more susceptible to STD infection (including HIV) by irritating the vagina and cervix (see link).  Be sure that both of you have current STD tests.

Yes it did. But yet I still went back for more. Use lots of lube (non-oil based), find someone that'll take their time. And find a way to relax. (avoid poppers, no good can come from them) And you might want to clean out down there for the sake of the other guy. Its a nice courtesy.\nAnd of course make sure protection is used, bottom condom for you or regular for your partner -with no spermicide.

Well finding the mold is a problem but helping your sons allergies is not. Grape seed extract in a large enough dose can eliminate allergies. Start with 2mg per pound of body weight. If you do not see results go up by another mg per pound until you see results. The body has to reach a saturation point for it to work. Most allergies are brought on by a lack of bioflavonoids. When he gets relief from the allergies you can start dropping the dose until the symtoms start to return then just go back up a little and you have souved half the problem. Just be careful with the cleaning products you will be using for the mold. Bleach is a lung irritant along with most of the other products listed. If he already has allergies his immune system is already on the weak side and more chemicals would be bad. When I swiched to non toxic cleaners my whole families health improved and the ones I use not only work better but they are cheaper. Contact me through my 360 page if you want more info.

An allergic reaction.

Wow ok something is not right.\n\nI would tell him you are concerned about him,and would like him to see a Dr.,since this a new thing and he was not always like this.That should get him reacting I am sure.\n\nAlso if you are not on birth control..get on some,not because of him but because it is flat out irresponsible to be having s*x without it.I am talking about the effective birth controls that require a Dr's prescription.Then you will have proof that you are as safe as can be on the front.\n\nIf those 2 things do not change anything,then it is obvious you need to move on,as he has no viable excuse.

If he is not allergic he can take Benadryl to help with the reaction.   Alveeno anti-itch cream seems to work better than calamine lotion.  Alveeno also has a spray gel that works great.  And their bath tratment says right on the box it is supposed to help with poison sumac.\n\nThe Benadryl and Alveeno together should get him through until you can reach the doctor.   I am very sensitive to poison ivy and reach for the benadryl right away.  Might make him sleepy though.\n\nGood luck!

I too am allergic to wheat, corn, dairy, cats, house mites and house dust oh and some trees. no grass though. I have been taking Atarax at night, because it makes me sleepy and then Allegra 180 in the am. By the way i was diagnosed with Uticaria, Skin Writing. Get with a good allergist, really push him, make him write a small dose of some form of anti histamine. And, as horrible as it is, keep your child off the foods that make him allergic. But  in saying that, foods may or may not make him itch, it could be just one food. Corn does make me itch. I can sneek a few foods in once in a while. I thank the Atarax and Allegra.\nGood luck.
