What is a Female Condom?
As per Wikipedia, the female condom is a thin, soft, loose-fitting sheath with a flexible ring at each end. It is also called the internal condom; because it is inserted inside the vagina. They typically come in various sizes. For most vaginas, a moderately sized condom is adequate; women who have recently given birth should try a large size first. The inner ring at the closed end of the sheath is used to insert the condom inside the vagina and to hold it in place during intercourse. The rolled outer ring at the open end of the sheath remains outside the vagina and covers part of the external genitalia. Cupid Angel Female Condom is the best example of FC.
