The present invention relates to a functional condom that enables a patient with erectile dysfunction to have normal sexual intercourse and, more particularly, to a condom including a micro-needle (13) provided on an inner surface of an upper portion (10), wherein the micro-needle (13) contains a drug (P) that is an erection-inducing substance. According to the present invention, patients, including those for whom pharmacotherapy is not possible due to side effects or due to a lack of therapeutic effect, may resolve erectile dysfunction without the use of painful injection therapy, by simply wearing the condom.

A prophylactic device includes a base for receiving a portion of a body, a tip for containing body fluids, and a tubular body in between. The tubular body includes at least one area with a textured pattern, including lines running along the tubular body (e.g., lines running in at least three directions) that form shapes on the tubular body with portions of the lines forming edges of the shapes (e.g., circles, ellipses, polygons, etc.). The textured pattern forms a reinforcing mesh that wraps around the tubular body. A mold can be used for making the prophylactic device, where the mold includes different portions for receiving material(s), and is shaped to form the material(s) into the base, tip, and tubular body of the prophylactic device.

A condom is configured to include a space such that a front glans part of the condom does not excessively come into contact with the penis of a man by selecting a material having moderate elasticity such as soft synthetic resin or synthetic latex rubber or a foamed rubber material conforming thereto or the like for the front part of the condom made from a soft rubber material; and includes embossed sponge layers or fine soft hairs additionally laminated on the inside and outside of the condom, to provide an excellent moisturizing effect such that an excellent contraceptive effect and a sexual pleasure-increasing effect can be simultaneously obtained when a user wears the condom, thereby providing multiple effects such as contributing to the treatment of patients with chronic dyspareunia or patients with anorgasmia and the like.

Prophylactic devices that have a flexible sheath, and an annular retainer portion with an adhesive surface to adhere to the skin and keep the device in place. The sheath is closed at the distal end and has an opening at a proximal end. The retainer portion is connected to the sheath at the proximal end, and surrounds the opening of the sheath. The adhesive surface may be formed by an adhesive substance or other means and may seal all or part of the retainer portion against the skin. The retainer portion may conform to the skin and/or have molded features. One embodiment includes backing and cover layers which adhere to the device to form a protective pouch or package which contains the sheath and lubricants on the sheath.

This invention disclosed condoms with surface hydrophilic and lubricious modification. Said condoms were grafted with a thin layer of zwitterions, which forms lubricious water layer when contacted with human body liquids or other water solutions, to lower the surface friction and mechanical damage to human body, and to improve user's experience. Another benefit of present invention is due to the tight bonding between modification material and condom substrate, the modification will stably stay on the substrate during usage, to avoid the potential side effects caused by lubricants.

The present invention is a female condom with an extended shield that can cover and seal the external genitalia to prevent sperm and disease transmissions during coitus. The construction of the present invention involves sealing of the double layered membranous films in an omega or similar shape to create a tubular and a shield portions, followed by applications of adhesive and releasing sheets onto the exterior of both shields before it is cut into the final product. The tubular portion will form the protective barrier for vagina (condom) while the shield portion, which adheres to the external genitalia, will prevent the seepage of body fluid. The tubular portion may be inverted to serve as a male condom. Double tubular portions are constructed for unconventional sexual activities. Transverse and longitudinal folds are created to enlarge the tubular portion. The female condom may be shaped, textured, colored and flavored according to the users' demand.

A garment assembly useful for sexual intercourse between a first user and a second user when the penetration of a body-extending member into a body orifice is either not possible or unwanted. The garment assembly includes a front and back panel covering and a crotch piece with the appearance of an ordinary garment normally found in a public environment such as one having the appearance of underwear. A fluid-impenetrable receiver attached to the front panel of the garment assembly will operate as a substitute for a body-orifice. The receiver includes an entryway adjoined to an interior cavity sized to accommodate a body-extending member. A preferred interior cavity includes sexually-interactive textured material for engagement with the body-extending member during use.

A homogeneous material layer comprising a base layer and at least one effective layer is disclosed. The material layer is made of a first material characterized by a bulk modulus of elasticity. The effective layer is defined by a plurality of projections that project from the base layer. Each projection includes a stalk and a cap having an end face. The height-to-width aspect ratio of the stalks is selected such that the effective layer has an effective modulus of elasticity that is lower than the bulk modulus of elasticity. The arrangement of the projections is selected such that the end faces are spaced along at least one dimension by a spacing that is less than or equal to one millimeter, thereby controlling the fine roughness of the effective surface. Control of the effective modulus and the spacing of the end faces enables control of the feel of the effective layer.

One method for creating barrier products (for example, condoms and gloves) includes: (a) dipping a former into a tank of elastic compound. The former has an indentation extending inwardly from an outer surface for creating a first protrusion on a first face of the barrier product. The method further includes: (b) removing the former from the tank of elastic compound, whereby some of the elastic compound removably adheres to the former and fills the indentation; (c) applying supplemental material to the elastic compound, whereby creating a second protrusion on a second face of the barrier product; and (d) fully drying the supplemental material. One barrier product includes an elastic wall having opposed faces, and first and second protrusions respectively extend from the opposed faces. The first and second protrusions are in cross-sectional alignment whereby rotational input forces on the first protrusion create rotational output forces on the second protrusion.
