TROJAN™ ULTRA RIBBED WITH SPERMICIDE CONDOMS

Trojan™ Ultra Ribbed Armor Condoms are now known as Trojan™ Ultra Ribbed Lubricated Condoms + Spermicide. This textured, spermicidal condom still has the straightwall shape and reservoir tip and comes in the familiar yellow packaging. It just has a new name!

Trojan™ Ultra Ribbed Condoms + Spermicide do have nonoxynol-9 spermicidal lubricant. However, Trojan™ Ultra Ribbed Lubricated Condoms do not have spermicide. Condoms with spermicide can help provide extra protection against pregnancy.

Nonoxynol-9, or N-9, is a kind of spermicide that helps to stop the progress of sperm from moving and joining with an egg, thereby helping to reduce the chance of pregnancy. All Trojan™ condoms with spermicide have nonoxynol-9 lubricant.

Ribbed condoms are textured condoms that have raised ridges meant to help increase stimulation and sexual pleasure. This is different from studded condoms, which feature “dots” or “bumps.” Trojan™ Ultra Ribbed lubricated condoms have a straight shape with deep ribs throughout the shaft area, plus a reservoir tip for added safety.

Condoms are safe and effective. They're 98% effective in preventing pregnancy when used consistently and correctly. This means that 2 out of 100 couples who use condoms as their primary method of birth control will experience an unintended pregnancy in the first year. The average couple has intercourse 83 times in a year; 2 pregnancies out of 8,300 sex act is a remarkably low pregnancy rate (0.02%) when calculated on a per-condom basis. (This statistic comes from page 334 of the 18th edition of Contraceptive Technology. It was not included in subsequent editions but conversations with Lee Warner, the author of the chapter on condoms, tell us it's still accurate.)

People don't always use condoms consistently (every time they have sex) and correctly (following instructions from start to finish). Research estimates that under real-world conditions, condoms are about 87% effective in preventing pregnancy. It's important to know that this includes condoms that are used incorrectly (like putting it on too late or taking it off too early) and even includes sex acts that may not have been protected by a condom at all.

Condoms are also the only form of birth control (other than abstinence) that protects against STIs, including HIV.

Most people can use latex condoms without any side effects. A small number of people (less than 1%) may be allergic to latex. These people can use polyurethane condoms instead.

Keep your condoms in a cool, dry place. Storing them near heat (like in your glove compartment) can cause them to become brittle or gummy and no good to use. Learn more about condom care.
