Question:
|
|
|
I am currently living and working in Krasnogorsk, in the Moscow Region. I have been surching for the herb echinacea, but have not been able to find it, can you help me.
I am alergic to Latex and as such must use non latex condoms - can you tell me what I should ask for, they don't seem to understand what I want. Also I am searching for a lubricant to be used with condoms. In the past I used wet, or Gyro - is there a similar type product available here, if so where would you purchase it. I really appreciate any assistance you can provide with these questions. Sincerely, Nina

Dear Nina ,
Sorry for the delay answering these questions. Regarding Herb Echinacea : One is a medication that contains juice Echinacea and available as Immunal drops and there is this extract of Echinacea that is available as lozenges or liquid. There are lot of lubricants available in the market and we recommend Johnson and Johnson KY jelly.Unfortunately we have not found non-latex condoms in Russia. The condoms that are prescribed in these instances are polyurethene condoms (Durex Avanti and Trojan super). Once we receive information about these condoms may pass the information to you.
