What is Pre-seed lubricant?

Pre-Seed is a personal lubricant that has been developed by doctors in the USA to be fertility friendly, and not to harm sperm. It was developed by a fertility specialist Dr Joanna Ellington specifically for couples trying to conceive, and has been used by fertility clinics, and shown to be safe to use and not harmful to sperm.

Did you know your choice of lubricant can affect your chances of conceiving?

Promoting successful conception is an important part of fertility support and advice, and fertility lubricants can provide a valuable aid to couples during this process.

Many traditional personal lubricants are simply not very friendly to sperm, sperm motility and cervical mucus. In the worst cases these lubricants can block the passage of sperm and even damage or degrade the sperm DNA. Their use can be a real barrier to successful conception.

How does Pre-Seed work ?

For anyone who has not come across it before Pre-seed is a sperm friendly lubricant that was developed by doctors especially to help couples who are trying to conceive. Most popular lubricants can reduce your chances of conceiving but Preseed works by providing a friendly environment for sperm, while also enhancing your love making. 

Preseed can be applied either externally to both partners or internally using the vaginal applicators provided. Many couples find they may only need to use a small amount of Pre-seed applied externally to both partners. If vaginal dryness is a problem, then you may also need to apply Pre-Seed intra-vaginally with an applicator prior to intercourse.

Ovulation and why knowing when you ovulate is important.

Ovulation is the release of an egg from the ovary. Knowing when you ovulate is very important, when you are trying to conceive.

Every month there is a short fertile window around time of ovulation that conception can occur. Outside this window, conception is unlikely to occur, no matter how many times you have intercours.
