ky jelly - fertilityfactor.com

Question: me and my husband usually have to use a lubricant to have sex. I have heard that some lubricants kill sperm. does the ky jelly do that.it says on the back of the bottle that it is not a spermicide. i was wondering if that is why we can't get pregnant. I am on clomid and it seems to dry me up more. I heard you can use pre seed or something like that but I cant find it. I am just sick of waiting I want a baby so bad so now I am thinking about the little things. Please help if you have some advice.

Answer: I never used any kind of jelly so I don't really know about it. But, why don't you try example to drink red wine for dinner, that can help your sex drive. Just a small advice. It work for me and the wine is very healthy for women too.

Answer: Kristen, yes, KY jelly is not good when ttc. The only thing that actually assist the sperm in moving is Pre Seed. All the other stuff is said to be bad for the sperm, not so much because it kills it, but because it blocks the movement forward. It's like quicksand for the sperm, they just get stuck and eventually die off. Do your very best to get hold of the product Pre Seed. Have a look at the website www.preseed.com You can order this through the net, or buy it if you're located in the US. I am desperate to get hold of it myself, but they don't ship to South Africa. So I'm still trying to figure out a way to get it here to me. Maybe I'll have it shipped to the UK and my husband can pick it up from there when he goes there every month. I've been reading up on this and it really seems to be the only solution if you're looking for a sperm friendly product. Good luck!!

Answer: I heard that KY killed sperm and bought the Pre Seed. It caused for me to have a not so pleasant discharge. Has anyone else tried pre-seed and had a bad reaction? I want to try it again - but don't want that to happen again. We are ttc and use small amounts of ky around the base - hoping to keep it away from the sperm.

Answer: I know I sound like a perv, but there are other options. If you check places like "love" stores. Also, check adamandeve.com (it's an adult website) but they offer things like this that you can't find in drug stores. And, no I'm not a perv but one of my doctors had told me about that when I was having a dryness problem. :-)

Answer: I'm not a believer in ANY lub products (even pre~seed). Had a post-coital after using it and many sperm were dead. If you need more CM try Robatussin, or a pill called MUCINEX (which has 600 mg of time-released guaifenesin, the active ingrediant in Robatussin. These help produce more mucus (which CAN get dry w/clomid and due to age). If worse comes to worse, you can use egg whites (but only use organic eggs). Best to just have lots of foreplay ; -O

Answer: Oh my goodness. You have to use Preseed. We conceived our first try using Preseed. We used to use KY jelly and couldn't get pregnant for 10 months. The first time we used preseed we suceeded. I swear. This is not a story. It worked.

Answer: I bought pre seed and this is the first month that I used it and I dont have any bad or smelly discharge... Everythign is just perfect and I love it. Forplay may be helpful but not enough as far as cm goes. Everyone is so different and our bodies act differently. I would not recomend to take Robitussin because it is good for cm, but has bad effects on baby later on.....I have done a research......K.P., I hope that Pre-Seed is going to help me get preggo this month. GOOD LUCK TO ALL

Answer: I LOVE PRESEED!! Have been using it this month ttc and I don't know if we have succeeded yet, but it is a great lubricant if you tend to get try. KY is too gloopy (if thats a word??) Preseed is great. My friend says that if you are in the US adult stores also carry something similar...
