The Femidom (or FC2) is a soft, non-latex nitrile sheath inserted into the vagina, providing a female-controlled barrier against pregnancy and STIs, including HIV. It measures 17cm in length and features a flexible inner ring for insertion and securing, along with a larger outer ring that covers the labia, offering approximately 95% efficacy when used correctly.
