  • Abbreviated condom device
    Patent number: 6145507
    Abstract: A contraceptive device comprised of an abbreviated condom and an applicator therefor is disclosed. The abbreviated condom is adhesively applied to the glans penis of a male sex organ, leaving exposed the coronal sulcus for improved sensitivity. The adhesive coats only the peripheral area of the condom leaving a central area substantially adhesive-free, thereby forming a fluid receptacle in the area of the glans penis. A spermicide is contained within the fluid receptacle by a spermicide-releasing membrane for release after application.
