Personal lubricants have long been a staple in the sex lives of many couples because they are fertility-friendly and ensure pain-free penetration.

Unfortunately, the sorts of lube used to enhance a couple’s sex life are not conducive to conception. Some store bought lubricants often contain a pH balance and consistency that does not support conception.

They can prevent sperm from effectively swimming through the cervix towards the woman’s egg. Some of these lubes even contain hormones or anesthetics, which are not particularly good for a woman’s vagina in general.

To be on a safer side, try making your lubricant and have a pain-free penetration and conceive right away.
