Lubricants....the sage continues

[Guest guest]

Ok...I found out that I can't use KY because it causes horrible

burning that only steroid ointment gets rid of. I then switched to

Astroglide. Now...I THOUGHT this stuff was ok but now realize that

my mild burning for the past month (after having virtually no burning

for 6 months) is most likely the Astroglide and using it more than

once a week is the reason. SO....what other choices are out there?

Does anyone know of a chemical free libricant? I've heard about

vegetable oil but what kind and has anyone tried it?????

Due to hormones, I have times when I am dry. I am " wet " but not with

the correct stuff. I don't seem to have the lubricant part of things

like I used to.

Sorry this is sooooo personal but I am tired of using steroid

ointments monthly.

Thanks

I have heard that Crisco works well.

Femglide and Slippery Stuff are supposed to be very good as lubricants also. I

haven't tried either of them.

I bought some Femglide from Drugstore.com. When I used it, it made me hot down

down there and the heat lasted for about two hours. I contacted the Femglide

people and they are going to replace it. The product that I received is very

thick and they said it it not supposed to be so thick.
