TTC- PreSeed or Natural?

We have been TTC for 5 months now and am looking at ways I can hopefully speed things along!

I have heard great things about PreSeed lubricant but wondered if anyone has any experience with it? And do you think it would be worthwhile using it?

We have never used a lubricant before everything is fine au natural (apologies for tmi) so do you think PreeSeed would help/hinder or make no difference at all!

Hi! I used preseed one cycle and got my bfp first time, obviously it could just be a coincidence but I would defo do it again.

Good luck xx

This is my first cycle using it to speed things up as heard such good things about. I would agree if your willing to use it then why not? I’m willing to try a lot of things just to get that BFP, fx!! Although we don’t usually use lubricant and must admit I think it just adds to the ‘moisture’ and kinda puts me off, but like I said I’m willing to try. For now certainly anyway!

We got our BFP first cycle using Preseed we had 3 unsuccessful cycles before that! No idea if the lube helped but would definitely use it again.

Another vote for ps. Didn’t use the turkey baster thing that comes with it mind!

@SundayLunchHappy turkey baster thingy Confused thankfully DH kept that bit from me!

TTC for 5 months without assistance with no luck. 6th cycle used preseed and got my BFP. Can't guarantee it was that that did it, but I'd certainly use it again!

5th cycle TTC we used Conceive Plus lubricant and got bfp. Who knows if that did it but here we are!

Stee1 · 31/08/2018 09:54

Used preseed and conceive plus none worked for us so far

I used it one cycle and got a BFP after 13 months trying...however I also had a couple of pelvic ultrasounds and was using the Ovusense that cycle so I think it was a combination of everything really that helped us pinpoint ovulation!

Another fan here used 3 cycles got BFP after years trying other factors helped too but it makes things more comfortable if you're dtd more frequently. Highly recommend Sperm Meets Egg Plan (SMEP) google for info!

Thanks so much ladies- I might as well give it a shot, if doesn't sound like it can harm!

Just to add some balance, got a BFP first month trying with preseed but had an early miscarriage with that pregnancy. Using it since over past 5 months and not even a sniff of a BFP. I think a lot of the time it's coincidence and biased reporting but if you want to use a lubricant then it's meant to be sperm friendly

We were TTC for 18 months. We used preseed for about 9 months. The month I got pregnant we hadn’t used it. I will say though that it was very useful for when I wasn’t “in the mood” but it was a fertile day Grin
