Speaking Thursday in Lilongwe during the launch, PSI Country Representative Sarah Makunganya Gibson said Whisper woman’s condom is a new type of contraceptive which offers non-hormonal protection against unintended pregnancy and STIs.

“It is made from non-latex, transparent film that is softer and thinner than other condoms which allows for increased sensation for both partners. The improved design allows for more secure fit that is confortable to wear and easy to insert and remove,” she said.

Among other features, the condom pouch provides good sensations and is confortable during sex and the outer ring hungs the body to provide a comfortable and flexible cover over the external genitals.

“It has also the insertional capsule made of polyvinyl alcohol that eases your handling and insertion of the condom with ingredients that absorb and leave the woman’s body with her vaginal secretions after use,” said Makunganya Gibson.

With a proven 95 percent effectiveness and won’t break with typical use, she said there are no known health risks with clinical studies showing that it is as safe as other female condom products.

Currently, the condoms are being sold in the country’s three cities and available in selected supermarkets, pharmacies and health clinics.

I an see men are coming out of the woodwork because women now have a choice. When you finish screwing your tart at Bwandilo and you come home demanding your so called right the condom will be ready for you. Women do not die to please men. We only have one life.

bentby and win b, sometimes we try to be cute and clever with our comments on nyasa, but we wind up looking foolish and uneducated.

malawians are dying daily because guys like you think they’re special. it’s your duty to tell everyone, everywhere, that when you are away from home it’s a must to use a condom.

you guys should please pray to god that an hiv positive makala seller doesn’t screw your wives plain when you are away…

Why can a woman decide for herself and her body? It is men who are not faithfully to there wives. Its is very important for a mother to protect herself for the sake of her children. How many women are going to die because of marriage? Unfaithful men are all over the world. This is the reason condom was introduced. Men dont like to wear condoms. In Africa/Malawi they say it is like to eat banana with a scale. Women are with protecting themselves.

Who is setting the standards of a decent woman you RASTA at number 3. Let the women choose for themselves what decency is whether it is wearing the whisper or not. Who are you to judge decency? What is decency after all if it means men telling women what decency is? Let us backward men stop manipulating our women with such words as indecent woman, prostitute etc when we are the ones participating in those indecencies. Did any woman tell us anything about decency when the male condom was introduced or re-introduced? You make me angry man! Sorry
