Answers:

Condoms are available in latex, lambskin, and polyurethane.

Latex condoms prevent the transmission of STDs and HIV.

Lambskin condoms, also known as "natural skin," or "natural membrane," are made from the intestinal lining of lambs. These condoms can prevent pregnancy, but they contain small pores that may permit passage of some STDs, including HIV, the hepatitis B virus, and the herpes simplex virus.

Polyurethane condoms are thinner and stronger than latex condoms, provide a less constricting fit, are more resistant to deterioration, and may enhance sensitivity. Polyurethane condoms are also recommended for those who have latex allergies. But polyurethane condoms have not been studied for their effectiveness in the prevention of STD transmission.

Another alternative available under the brand name Reality®, is the female condom made of polyurethane and provides protection against pregnancy and STDs, including HIV.
