Yini ikhondomu yesikhumba semvu?

Amakhondomu esikhumba semvu nawo abizwa ngokuthi “amakhondomu esikhumba semvelo.” Igama elifanele lolu hlobo lwekhondomu “ikhondomu lolwelwesi lwemvelo.”

Igama elithi "lambskin" liyadukisa njengoba lawa makhondomu enziwa empeleni ngesikhumba semvu sangempela. Zenziwe ngewundlu cecum, okuyisikhwama esisekuqaleni kwethumbu elikhulu lewundlu. Amakhondomu enziwe ngeziswani namathumbu amawundlu nezinye izilwane abelokhu ekhona izinkulungwane zeminyaka.

Yize bekwazi ukuvimbela ukukhulelwa futhi anikeze imizwa yemvelo futhi esondelene kakhulu, amakhondomu esikhumba semvu aqala ukulahlekelwa ukuthandwa ngemuva kokusungulwa kwamakhondomu e-latex ngawo-1920.

Ukuthengiswa kwamakhondomu esikhumba semvu kwanda futhi ngawo-1980 ngemuva kokukhishwa kombiko weSurgeon General nge-AIDS. Lokhu kwadlula isikhathi esifushane, njengoba amakhondomu omzimba wemvelo atholakala engasebenzi kangako ekusakazekeni kwezifo ezithathelwana ngocansi (STIs).

Amakhondomu eWundskin vs. amakhondomu we-latex

Nayi indlela emfushane yokuthi amakhondomu esikhumba semvu aqhathaniswa namakhondomu e-latex:

• Amakhondomu e-latex ajwayelekile kakhulu futhi atholakala kalula kunamakhondomu esikhumba semvu. Cishe amakhondomu enziwe e-United States amakhondomu e-latex. Amakhondomu wemvelo yolwelwesi alalela nje.
• Amakhondomu eWundskin abonakala enikeza ukuzwela okwandisiwe futhi azizwe engokwemvelo kakhulu kunamakhondomu e-latex. Bacatshangelwa nokuthi badlulisa ukushisa komzimba kangcono.
• Amakhondomu e-lambskin angenye indlela eya kumakhondomu we-latex kubantu abanezifo ze-latex.
• Amakhondomu, kufaka phakathi amakhondomu esikhumba semvu, asebenza ngamaphesenti angama-98 ekuvikeleni ukukhulelwa uma esetshenziswe kahle. Ukusetshenziswa okungafanele kwehlisa ukusebenza cishe ngamaphesenti angama-85.
• Amakhondomu esikhumba semvu abiza kakhulu kunamakhondomu e-latex.
• Amakhondomu esikhumba semvu ayaboliswa. ILatex nayo iyabolazeka, kodwa amakhondomu amaningi e-latex aqukethe ezinye izinto ngaphandle kwe-latex.
• Amakhondomu esikhumba semvu angasetshenziswa nazo zonke izinhlobo zokugcoba, kufaka phakathi ezakhelwe uwoyela, ezingasetshenziswa ne-latex.
• Amakhondomu omzimba wemvelo wokuvikela izifo ezithathelana ngokocansi kanye ne-HIV, ngokusho kweCenters for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Asebenza kanjani amakhondomu esikhumba semvu?

Ikhondomu inikeza umgoqo ogcina isidoda, uketshezi lwesitho sangasese sowesifazane kanye negazi ekudluliseni lisuka komunye uzakwethu liye komunye ngesikhathi sokuya ocansini. Lokhu kusiza ukuvimbela ukukhulelwa kanye nokudluliswa kwamagciwane namagciwane angadala i-HIV kanye nezifo ezithathelana ngokocansi.

Amakhondomu esikhumba seWundlu asetshenziswa njengezinye izinhlobo zamakhondomu futhi agqokwa ngaphezulu kwepipi. Ziyazivikela ekukhulelweni ngokuvimbela ukudlula kwesidoda, kepha azivikeli ekusakazekeni kwamagciwane.

Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi amakhondomu olwelwesi lwemvelo aqukethe izimbotshana ezincane okuthi, nakuba zincane ngokwanele ukuvimba isidoda, zikhulu ngokwanele ukuvumela ukuvuza kwegciwane, ngokusho kwezifundo eziningi. Lawa ma-pores angaba kufinyelela kububanzi, obuphinda izikhathi ezingaphezu kwezingu-10 ubukhulu be-HIV nobudlula izikhathi ezingaphezu kuka-25 ubukhulu begciwane le-hepatitis B (HBV).

Ukuvikela ukusabalala kwegciwane lesandulela ngculaza kanye nezinye izifo zocansi, kunconywa amakhondomu e-latex. Uma uxabana ne-latex, kunezinye izindlela ezitholakalayo:

• Amakhondomu enziwe ngepulasitiki (njengamakhondomu e-polyurethane) avikela kukho kokubili ukukhulelwa kanye nezifo ezithathelana ngokocansi. Amakhondomu epulasitiki aphuka kakhulu kune-latex; ukusebenzisa i-lubricant esetshenziselwa amanzi- noma i-silicone kungasiza ukuvimbela ukwephuka.
• Amakhondomu enziwe ngenjoloba yokwenziwa (njengamakhondomu e-polyisoprene) avikela kukho kokubili ukukhulelwa kanye nezifo ezithathelana ngokocansi.

Amakhondomu asebenza kahle uma esetshenziswa kahle. Ngenkathi izinhlobo eziningi zisetshenziswa ngendlela efanayo ejwayelekile, hlala ufunda imiyalo ephaketheni ukuqinisekisa ukusetshenziswa okufanele.

Ukuthatha

Amakhondomu eWundlu angaba yindlela kulabo abakhathazeke kuphela ngokuvimbela ukukhulelwa, njengabantu abasebudlelwaneni obuzibophezele abahlole ukuthi abanazo izifo zocansi.

Uma uxabana ne-latex, izinketho ezingcono zikhona kumakhondomu e-lambskin. Isibonelo, amakhondomu e-polyurethane, ngokungafani namakhondomu esikhumba semvu, nawo angavimbela ukusabalala kwezifo zocansi kanye ne-HIV.
