Does Lubricant Have Any Effect On Sperm?
Posted: 04-11-06 13:47pm

I ws reading that lubricant affects sperm in a negative way but I also read that it has no affect on sperm. Does anyone here know if it does? If you do plse help we have been using astroglide.

I think it depends on the ph level in the lubricant. I know they sell some special brand that they say won't hurt the sperm. I think it was called pre-seed but I hear it is a bit pricey.

Astroglide

I had read the same thing about lubracant. I read that astroglide was supposed to be ok. Well, I went out and bought it. A few days later I found info on the net that said that astroglide was bad as well. Not sure what to believe now. They also say that saliva is bad as well. Kinda a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation I think. I wish I could find a product that I know is safe. Everywhere you look there is conflicting info.

Most certainly it does!

Most lubricants have high ph levels which can kill off sperm. The only lubricant I know of that does not do that is pre-seed. It was especially created for lubrication while trying to conceive.
