Alternatives to lube?
3
Sun, 10-22-2006 - 9:17pm

I am starting to think that I am allergic to some lubricants, so I was thinking about trying natural lubricants instead. I looked on the internet and found one alternative that kept popping up- almond oil. However, I can't find any information on whether or not this is water soluble (I still want to use condoms). Does anyone know if this is water soluble, or of any good natural lubricants that are?

Thanks!! ~Rebecca

Thanks for the response! I have tried regular KY, KY warming (did not like AT ALL), and a scented one, I'm not sure of the brand because we transfered it to a different bottle. I am actually starting to become worried that it isn't the lube at all, but instead, vulvodynia. From the information I have gathered, the outlook doesn't look good... But I am going to keep trying different stuff, I'm also going to try poly condoms. If I were allergic to latex, I would already know by now, right?

Thanks again! ~Rebecca
