Completely hormone free, used when needed, no side effects although a slight pain to have to put it on and then ensure it hasn't broken.

Most of my time using a male condom I’ve also been on pill form contraception so any side effects I put down to those. This has been a reliable form of contraception which can be just as enjoyable as nothing with none of the stress of accidentally creating a human.
