A package for a condom provided with a main compartment for housing a condom, and an additional compartment separate from the main compartment and having a disposal element that enables the condom to be disposed of after use in an environmentally friendly manner. A package is provided with integrated components, easy for the user to handle and without excessively increasing manufacturing costs compared to a standard commercial individual package.

A device includes a shell including a proximal end and a distal end of the shell. The device also includes a plunger within the shell. The plunger can include a flexible stop at a proximal end of the plunger and a distal end. The device can further include an absorptive unit configured to absorb fluid within a vaginal cavity. The absorptive unit can be affixed to the distal end of the plunger. The absorptive unit can include an absorptive element affixed to a frame structure configurable to reversibly transition between a compressed and uncompressed configuration. The absorptive unit can also include a tether coupled to the absorptive unit via the frame structure. The tether can extend through the proximal end of the plunger. Related methods of use are also described.

The present disclosure relates to the field of condoms (100) and envisages a female condom (100) which comprises a sheath (102) configured in an oblong shape, an internal retainer (104) and an external retainer (106). The sheath (102) is configured to expand into an elongated configuration when a penis is inserted therein, and prevent contact of body fluids during coitus. The internal retainer (104) is located at the closed end of the sheath (102), and is configured to be squeezed before being inserted into the vagina. The internal retainer (104) is configured to fit over the cervix for minimizing the chances of removal of the condom (100) from the vagina. The external retainer (106), having an octagonal configuration, is configured on the open end of the sheath (102) to facilitate resting of said condom (100) on the vulva for avoiding slippage of the condom (100) during coitus.

Methods of manufacturing a garment apparatus are provided. The garment apparatus can be, for example, a device, a panty, a boyshort, a short, a lingerie item, a barrier, a garment, an undergarment, a membrane, a prophylactic, and/or a system.

Described herein are interactive devices that mimic a portion of a human male and a female genitalia. The male device includes a unique bead drive assembly for providing an extending and retracting motion. Also included on the male device is a massager sub-assembly able to inflate and deflate while being able to slide along a shaft of the male device. The female device includes a clamshell constrictor having an inflation mechanism that is able to provide a squeezing motion as well as being able to slide back and forth within the body of the female device. Also disclosed herein are methods of communication and interaction between a pair of interactive devices or multiple interactive devices. Finally, methods of managing interactive sessions between multiple interactive devices are also described.

The present disclosure describes a vaginal system comprising segesterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol configured for thirteen 28-day product-use cycles that is compatible with male condoms comprising natural rubber latex, polyisoprene, or polyurethane and a method of providing birth control using the vaginal system wherein a secondary contraception is employed when the vaginal system is removed or expelled from the vagina for specified amounts of time during any of the product-use cycles.

The present invention relates to ultrasonically detectable intrauterine systems and to a method for enhancing ultrasound detection of these systems. An intrauterine system having an inert metal coating on at least part of the body of the intrauterine system or at least one inert metal clip, pin, ring or sleeve fixedly positioned on the body of the intrauterine system is described.

The present disclosure provides a mold for molding a polyurethane condom, and methods for manufacturing and using the mold. The mold (200) has a surface roughness of 0.2 or less, is formed from a thermoplastic polymer having a surface tension of 10-35 mN/m. The mold (200) for molding a polyurethane condom is prepared by injection molding the thermoplastic polymer. When the mold (200) is used, the mold (200) is hung vertically and dipped in an emulsion containing a polyurethane resin to obtain a dipped mold (200), then the dipped mold (200) is removed and dried to form a polyurethane film on its surface, and then demolded to obtain a polyurethane condom (100). The condom formed by the mold (200) is thin and has excellent flexibility and strength, satisfying the market demand for the product.
