Help - no lubrication!
| Sun, 11-07-2004 - 11:07am |
I recently started having sex with a new partner. Both times we had to stop after about 15 minutes because I became completely dry. I started out very lubricated but then it just stopped. I am 25 years old and this has never happened to me before. The only thing I can think of is that it has to do with his size - he is bigger than anyone I have been with before. Has anyone else ever experienced this? I know I can buy lubricants, and I plan to, but am I destined to always have to use them from now on? I used to be able to go for a very long time with other partners so I don't understand what the problem could be.

Have you recently begun using hormonal contraceptives or switched pills or methods, ring or patch? Some hormone formulations can really dry out some women. Size might be a factor but I’m betting it's something else. Did you use condoms with other partners? If your new partner is using a condom (A very good thing until he's tested and found disease free.) that will trap his contribution to your total lube and if you are using textured condoms they could be contributing as well. Don't use an oil base lubes as oil will destroy latex barriers. A good water based lube, (Astroglide or K-Y liquid are both good) or a silicone base lube like Eros Body Glide which works especially well under water is what you need and don't be shy about using plenty of it. Let us know how you're doing, ok?
Good luck,

If you want to explore a lubricant, I use a homeopathic product I love (www.korunaturals.com). My problem is bcp...
