National Condom Month focuses attention on safe sexual habits and preventing sexual diseases by using a condom.
The condom has existed in one form or another since 1564. Gabriel Falloppio developed the first consisting of a linen bag drenched in a solution of salt or herbs to protect men against syphilis.
Eventually, it earned the nickname "English Raincoat." By the 18th century, sheep and goat intestines or silk and linen sheaths replaced the bags, but men had to tie these to their bodies to prevent them from coming off.
The name condom is from the Latin "condus," which translates to "receptacle."
Today, both male and female versions of the condom exist fabricated from latex (rubber), plastic, or sheep intestines.
