First thing to know: Lube is your vagina's best friend. Second thing to know: Flavored lube is your mouth's best friend. Why is flavored lubricant so great, you ask? For one, you may find that different tastes enhance your arousal, pleasure, and presence during oral sex and sex play. "Just as we can be turned on by the smell and taste of foods, we're also affected by the scent and taste of our partner," says Astroglide’s resident sexologist Jess O’Reilly, PhD.

Vaginal lubricants are used to add to your natural lubrication (wetness). They help decrease dryness and pain during sexual activity. You can use lubricants to make vaginal insertion or external sexual touch more comfortable and pleasurable. These are suppositories that you put into your vagina with a disposable applicator. They work best if you use them at bedtime.One of the best ways to reduce vaginal and vulvar dryness is to use a moisturizer. Vaginal and vulvar moisturizers help improve tissue quality by increasing moisture and elasticity (movement) in your vagina and vulva. These moisturizers are different from lubricants, which are used during sexual activity. Lube products should be paraben, glycerin, petroleum and fragrance free, pH balanced, come with low osmolality, and should not cause burning or discomfort. There is no real benefit to buying a lube that is flavored so you should avoid those as well. The ingredients are naturally hydrating so your skin will feel silky smooth when you’re done. It has a mild vanilla scent thanks to the vanilla flavor added, but nothing too strong. It’s even safe to swallow! Pros: These are great if you have pelvic floor overactivity. CBD works directly with the pelvic floor muscles and tissues to help them relax while providing the moisture needed from lube.

Steer clear of desensitizing agents, such as lidocaine. Some lubes that are specifically branded for anal sex contain these but they could stop you from being able to feel the pain that indicates an injury so you won’t know to tell your partner to stop. (None of our recs contain numbing agents.) Many lubes contain glycerin, which is a byproduct of sugar; Some experts advise avoiding this ingredient, as sugar attracts yeast, which may lead to an infection. That said, many people are fine with glycerin in commercial lubes, so if it works for you, it's safe to use. They shared the pros and cons of different types of lubes, who would benefit from using lube, the best lube for different intentions, and ingredients to seek out or avoid. They also shed light on whether lube affects your risk for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Runner Up: Sliquid Organic Lubricating Gel.

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.Hormone fluctuations during pregnancy, after delivery, and while pumping or breastfeeding can make things a little drier, even if you are mentally and emotionally ready to go. (Although vaginal dryness is very common, pain with intercourse is not and could be a sign that you would benefit from an evaluation by a pelvic floor PT). Using anal lube can also make it less likely that your condom will break. The tearing of delicate skin can allow a sexually transmitted infection to get into your bloodstream. That’s why the following advice is key: “Always use a condom,” says Dr. Gonzalez. “They're the best way to protect yourself against sexually transmitted infections.” Avoid petroleum products like Vaseline, and skip natural oil-based lubricants like coconut oil, too, if you're using a condom. Lube makes pretty much every type of sex better, end of story. It's crucial for anal sex, as the rectum isn't self-lubricating, and it enhances vaginal sex as well. There are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for lube. It's wise to avoid glycerin, parabens, and sugars, as they can lead to yeast and bacterial infections for people with vulvas. Numbing agents are also a no-no: You want to feel more, not less, and pain is an important signal that you could be going too hard or fast. Oils are also not the best choice for vulvas since they've been known to lead to irritation, and they're also not latex-friendly and could even break a condom. Silicone-based varieties are great since they're long-lasting and fantastic for butt stuff, but they don't mix well with silicone toys — liquid silicone can degrade solid silicone. Never fear, intrepid lube user, there are a plethora of water-based options available for your next pegging session. 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.
