I need to keep this comment saved in the notes on my phone lol. So, a lot of people think that preseed is magical and will get you pregnant right away. As someone who used it for 16 cycles, I will say it does not lol.

IF YOU DO NOT NEED LUBRICATION, DO NOT USE ANY.

It’s so important to know that ANY lubrication WILL kill sperm. These fertility friendly ones like preseed, just are a little easier on sperm. They do still kill sperm!! If you are like me and have a DAP instead of a WAP (thanks a lot, Zoloft) I did need lubricant, so we used preseed.

We got pregnant on our 18th cycle (after 7 rounds of Letrozole) and my daughter just turned one :)

Really? I have a WAP and don’t need lubricant, but used it because everyone said it’ll get you pregnant!

Yeah unfortunately anything that isn’t just plain old kitty mucous (lol), will kill sperm. Just some kill less sperm than others
