What Trojan Ultra Thin is
Trojan Ultra Thin is a lubricated male condom made of natural rubber latex and sold as a thinner alternative to Trojan's standard condom; its Amazon listing title (viewed October 3, 2026) describes "Ultra Thin Latex Condoms" that are "Lubricated". FDA regulates latex condoms as Class II devices under 21 CFR 884.5300, product code HIS, reviewed through the 510(k) process (FDA product classification HIS), and requires an expiration date and a latex allergy caution on the packaging (FDA latex condom labeling guidance).
Evidence behind the rating
- Condoms protect. Consistent condom use reduced HIV incidence by about 80% in a Cochrane review, an estimate for male condoms in general rather than latex specifically PMID: 11869658, and prospective studies link condom use to protection against chlamydia, gonorrhea, HSV-2 and syphilis PMID: 15356939.
- Thinness. No published study comparing Trojan Ultra Thin with standard-thickness condoms was found for this review, so any difference in breakage or sensation is unmeasured here.
The A grade reflects the class-level evidence for condoms, not a study of this product.
Who Trojan Ultra Thin suits
Choose Trojan Ultra Thin if neither partner is allergic to latex and you want a thinner latex condom. Use a water- or silicone-based lubricant if you add one, because oil-based lubricants can weaken latex (CDC STI treatment guidelines: primary prevention).
Choose SKYN Original if either partner has a latex allergy, or Trojan Original for a standard latex condom. Our guide to latex-free and latex condoms explains the differences between materials.
