Products for Those with Allergies or Other Sensitivities

People live with various allergies to chemicals often found in common materials, scents, and foods. Chemical intolerance, which affects at least 6% of the U.S. population involves negative symptoms such as headache, dizziness, difficulty concentrating and/or nausea in response to the odors and tactile exposure to low levels of environmental chemicals that the majority of people tolerate. Unfortunately, many of these chemicals can be found in materials used to make sex toys. For example, latex is one of the most common allergies reported from people with these sensitivities (for more information on this topic, please see Dr. Gardos' Q&A). An alternative to latex products are those made of glass, acrylic, or silicone.

Keeping in mind individual allergies, the product suggestions listed below may be good options for those with sensitivities. Also, always remember that you should never use a silicone-based lubricant with any of these materials as it will destroy your toy; always use something water-based!
