You guys are making me nervous! I've had a SP for 2 years now and only 1 or maybe 2 UTIs and no real problems changing it - every 3 weeks. From the beginning, I've used the brown rubber latex type. The new batch they just sent me are clear see through latex. Should I be concerned? How many of you all use these clear latex types?
