Interesting fact from Redbook magazine
Embarrassing Question of the Month
Q: I'm trying to get pregnant but sometimes have problems with vaginal dryness. Is it OK to use an over-the-counter lubricant?
A: In a word: no. A study at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas found that popular lubricants can hamper sperm's ability to swim to your egg by 60 to 100%. But if you need help with low lubrication, you can safely use - surprise! - a dab of canola oil. 'It has no detrimental effect on sperm activity and even seems to enhance sperm movement,' says study coauthor William Byrd, Ph.D.
Canola Oil???? Between the Guifasen medicine and now the canola oil we should be preggers in no time!
