Condoms after Prostate Cancer


A condom is a contraceptive device, usually latex, that prevents the transmittance of bodily fluid during sexual intercourse. Men who undergo prostate cancer treatments such as brachytherapy may be advised to use a condom when engaging in sexual intercourse in the weeks after receiving the prostate brachytherapy treatment. Using the condom prevent brachytherapy seeds that may migrate out of the body during intercourse from entering his partner’s body.
