I don't think so but Pre-seed is good apparently

McDreamy · 09/06/2008 15:03

Had never even considered that!!! Maybe that's why I'm not bloody pregnant!!

winnie, KY is definitely NOT sperm friendly!

Have heard you can use baby oil.

Have also heard that KY Jelly is not sperm friendly.

I've read to use Pre-Seed, but also (and I know it sounds abosultely disgusting) but egg whites are supposed to be very sperm-friendly!!! Not tried it myself

KY jelly can reduce the chances of conceiving by at least 50%.

How would that work? !

flowerfairy · 22/06/2008 20:13

just to also add that saliva also kills sperm and is not a good addition to the mix when ttc.

MsG · 23/06/2008 08:17

What about other lubricants, such as Boots own branded one?

MsG · 23/06/2008 08:28

We need to use a lubricant for both of us - would pre-seed work for him as well - sometimes my husband gets a bit of discomfort. I'm really worried now!

cazzybabs · 23/06/2008 08:40

I used pre-seed and I am sure that is why we got dd3 - 1st month of tryng!

MsG · 23/06/2008 08:50

I'm going to order some now. Just been looking online and it looks like all lubes can kill sperm - arrrgh!
