What Causes Rashes On Penis When Partner Uses Spermicidal Birth Control?
Question: my girlfriend used a spermicidal birth control .And it is breaking my penus out in a rash and burning at the tip of it when urinating
I have no prior history of disease or any problems at all. Only rash iv ever had was from my wife using Antibiotics. She would then get a yeast infection which in turn would give me a rash . I could put some Vagisil on and clear it up.

Brief Answer:
allergic reaction to the spermicide contents , likely
Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome
I appreciate your concern
It appears to be an allergic response to the spermicide.
Apply calamine lotion and hydrocortisone cream separately thrice a day. Take either Benadryl or avil tablets which are antihistamines. Most likely the rash and burning will subside. If it persists despite the treatment then you should visit a doctor to physically examine and assess the rash.
Wishing you best of health
