I hope this post doesn't get me banned 😂

What are your recommendations for lube that helps with fertility? I.E ..helps the swimmers rather than hinders!

And has anyone got pregnant whilst using?

We are really trying to DTD as much as we can in fertility windows ...but need some help!

Thanks for reading .....

Pre-seed - whilst I cannot for certain say whether it helps for fertility, some lubes are known to block sperm whereas this one apparently does not.

I used this before I got pregnant with my first child, as we had been trying for a few months to get pregnant. The first month we used it, we got pregnant. But I cannot categorically say it was down to this.

Another vote for pre-seed, we started using it as soon as we started ttc and got pregnant on the first cycle.

Used conceive plus last time, worked first cycle using after 2 cycles of not using it.

Haven't bought any this time around but probably will do if nothing happens in next few cycles.

Yep pre seed then legs up in the air afterwards..worked for us after unsuccessful months

We're using conceive plus. First month TTC, currently 8DPO and have had increased CM (usually have none at this point), a potential BBT implantation dip at 6DPO and the last 24 hours have had waves of nausea and fatigue so who knows? 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Also some mild cramps which I wouldn't normally get until about 3 days before AF is due so 4 days earlier than expected. Will do a test in the next few days! GL!

Conceive Plus worked last time for us and I'm using it this time (first cycle), but I don't love the consistency! It's sticky and dries quickly. I wonder if pre-seed is any different?

Going to try the Conceive Plus for this cycle..
Also bought OPKs - Clearblue 2 days...
Wish me luck ! 😊

Another vote here for pre-seed!
we had tried for two months with no success and then on cycle three we used pre-seed and our daughter was conceived 🙂

could be a coincidence but it gets my approval 😅

Cough syrup was all the rage when I was TTC. To be take orally I'd add! I think some of the chesty cough ones work to awaken mucous which works in your chest but also down below too making it easier for the sperm to work its way through. Worked to conceive my eldest!

Hairbrushhandle · 02/06/2023 04:36

Weaken not awaken!

KStein · 02/06/2023 07:26

We weren't successful last month using conceive plus externally so we're trying preseed this month. Have also started taking evening primrose oil from CD1 until ovulation. Tempted to try the cough syrup thing because I have little CM (I think due to antihistamines so have halved my dose until ovulation). Am also making a big effort to drink lots of water. @Hairbrushhandle did you notice a difference in your CM using cough syrup?

These lubes are honestly some of the best lubes I have tried. I don't know what impact they have on fertility but they are all natural so should be fine..
