female condoms
Insertable contraceptive sheaths
A female condom is a contraceptive device inserted into the vagina before intercourse, forming a barrier to prevent pregnancy and reduce transmission of sexually transmitted infections.
Unlike male condoms worn on the penis, female condoms line the vaginal canal and have flexible rings at both ends—one to hold it in place internally, one covering the external opening.
