Lubrication??
| Mon, 08-18-2003 - 8:48am |
Hello all.....
I just have a question about Lubricants. I am using Trojan lubrication, but I read somewhere that lubrication kills sperm, even if it has no spermicide. I also read that saliva does. Does anyone know of something we could use as a substitute? I have heard of egg whites, and vegetable oil. Any suggestions?

I have read the same info. "Preseed" seems to be the lubricant of choice from the other boardsters. I have never tried it, but I think you have to order it online.
Hope this helps!

Greetings!
This may be TMI, but I wanted to share my experience. DH and I have been using Pre-Seed while TTC...in addition to 'doing the job', it seems that it truly is 'sperm-friendly'...I just found out that I am pg!!! I was a little nervous using it, but it does not seem that it hindered our attempts...LOL!!! Anyway, I know there have been discussions about extra lubrication on here before, and I just wanted to let you know that I was successful with Pre-Seed. It's pretty $$$, but with all the BDing we were doing, it was well worth it! Also, I don't get much noticeable EWCM...not sure if the Pre-Seed helped with that or not, but it seems like it might have served as a decent 'stand-in'. Everyone on here has been so helpful that I wanted to share this little bit of info I have...no matter how embarassing...LOL!!! GL to everyone! P.S....I bought it online at Drugstore.com.
Cheers!

I read an article somewhere on TTC...I can't remember where...but it gave 2 alternatives for sperm friendly lube...one was Preseed, and the other is called "slippery stuff"... I just broke down and ordered the Preseed myself...in part because of Lori's post!
Anyway...I wish you much luck!
