Yes, flavored lube is edible. And tbh, whether flavored or not, any water- or oil-based lube that you use (including vaginal lubes or anal lubes) should be edible. After all, if a lube isn’t safe to ingest orally, then why should it be put anywhere your vagina or anus? The exception to this is with silicone lubes, which—though body-safe—should only be ingested in the *smallest* amounts.

Here's how to use a lube, says Dr. Streicher: “The time to apply lubricant is before you attempt intercourse. You squeeze it on your fingers, and if there’s a penis involved, you apply it liberally to the penis, and to the opening of the vagina [or anus].” It’s important to warm the lube first, she adds: “If you put cold lube on an erection, he might lose it.” Ask around! Since “fertility-friendly” is still a pretty new label, getting recommendations from others who are trying to conceive is a good place to start, too. You may want to try out a few until you find the one that works best for you and your partner. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask your OBGYN, midwife or other medical provider about what’s safe and what isn’t. (Shameless plug!

Fertility-friendly lubricant is a fast-growing sector of the lube world. Lots of reputable products have emerged in recent years, leading the FDA to create a label denoting which products pass their safety standards. However, while “fertility-friendly” or “sperm-friendly” lube is proven to be less damaging to sperm, it’s not a guarantee of conception. These are suppositories that you put into your vagina with a disposable applicator. They work best if you use them at bedtime. You can use vaginal and vulvar moisturizers at any time, not just before or during sexual activity. Use them 3 to 5 times a week to help with your overall vaginal health and comfort.

Hormone fluctuations during menopause can make things a little drier as well. Vaginal dryness can occur for a number of reasons, including the aforementioned. Using a lubricant can also reduce tissue irritation and tearing. It can also just make sex more pleasurable. Over-the-counter vaginal and vulvar moisturizers do not have any hormones in them. You can buy them online or at your local pharmacy without a prescription. I recommend using vitamin E oil or coconut oil daily to help hydrate and using a water based lubricant during intercourse. If you opt to use coconut oil or any oil-based lubricant for intercourse, condoms are at a risk of tearing and can be ineffective.If you’re an MSK patient, you can get more coupons for Revaree.

There are many products you can use to help make sexual activities more pleasurable. Examples are lubricants, lingerie, and sex toys. You can buy these online, over the phone, or from a specialty store. If you are trying to conceive (congratulations!), it might be a good idea to stay away from the lube. This is because several studies have indicated that using lube can prevent the sperm from swimming to the egg. The more sperm that reach the egg, the more chances for fertilization. So, if you can, avoid lubrication while trying to conceive. Odds are, you’ll up your chances. This medication comes in an oil-based vaginal suppository. Put it into your vagina every day at bedtime for 14 days. After 14 days, put it into your vagina 2 times a week at bedtime.
