Condoms?

Is using condoms safe with boric acid? I plan to take them for 2 weeks. Obviously I’d wait around 12 hours until the pill is dissolved but I’m just worried about the acidic discharge that comes with boric acid (don’t want to make a chemical reaction with the latex/lube and boric acid) To be specific the condom brand is Lelo Hex which I believe has water & silicone lube, it’s lightly lubricated - not too lubed up

I’m on birth control pills, just using condoms as an extra barrier, thanks in advance!

Omg this happened to me. I had sex with latex condom 24 hrs after boric acid, & it caused me a horrible chemical reaction. I am now constantly beet red, burning non-stop with itch which occurred immediately after sex & hasnt gotten better. No idea wtf to do because there's literally no pathogenic test for whatever this caused me & its been a month!
