Guest: Dr George Lee, Consultant Urologist, Dr Premitha Damodaran, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

It was recently reported that a Malaysian gynaecologist had created the “world’s first unisex condom”, which would make what is traditionally a male contraception also usable for women.

Consultant obstetrician & gynaecologist Dr Premitha Damodaran and consultant urologist Dr George Lee weigh in.
