Feel free to handwave that Era bit the bullet and informed the natives of the importance of condoms! because she is a good wingman
It would come complete with a spiel about preventing spread of infection and disease, and how sexual intimacy is considered to be an important aspect of romantic relationships, so they should be provided at very reasonable cost, if not subsidized! Because the usage of one pretty much guarantees physical affection of some sort, so they would technically be facilitating what their gods want them to...
Basically she will be so mortified that she has to ask that she would go full-on scholar mode and ramble out facts very clinically. (╥ω╥);;;; Also would offer to provide anatomical references from the anatomy text she has saved on her Deerington comm device if need be (since it's not like she knows what kind of junk the natives had back in the day, and she knows they don't really remember what it's like to have biological forms...).

Tangential question here: how difficult would it be to acquire lace and silks (synthetic, ofc) and other materials necessary for and/or suited to crafting lingerie/underthings?
Era'd want to inquire about that while she was there, since... moderately relevant, and her physiology needs to be taken into account for underthings in particular so she can't just grab stuff off-the-shelf, so to speak.
Actually, if the native tailor would make mention of pre-crafted things, that would be a situation where Era would actually point out that her anatomy makes it difficult to get clothing, and so she needs to tailor everything to herself. Which might then prompt the natives into considering the not-quite-exactly-humans that are around and how their needs might differ?
