Pre-seed

Have you used it? Was it worth it?

Someone at that *other* site - pretty sure it was Phen - had a great way of putting it:

Pre-Seed does not increase your odds of conception. It's not a fertility booster.

It only doesn't decrease your odds of conceiving (by killing off sperm as some lubes do). If you don't need lube, don't use it. There's lots of anecdotal evidence ("first cycle we used it, we conceived!") which is great, but if it wasn't coincidental, and was related to lube use, it was due to the discontinuing of sperm-killing lubes, and not due to the introduction of a sperm-turbo-charger.

Thanks

The reason I was wondering about it is because something (either the Femara or the trigger shot, I'm guessing) is killing my CM.

I used preseed twice. One month I got a BFN, one month I got a BFP. As BTB said, it probably wasn't the Preseed! It's an o.k. lube, though.

A *much* cheaper alternative is FemGlide.

I second the FemGlide recommendation. Pre-Seed really pisses me off. Seriously, they charge, like, a bazillion dollars for their stuff and then they put it in those ridiculous applicators so you end up using way more than you need, just so they can get you to order more of it. It's such a scam.

Yeah. They suck. I ordered a tube of FemGlide for about $6, and I still have a fat ton of it left.

I third FemGlide and couldn't agree w/Betsy more!

I used Pre-Seed, but not the month that we conceived!

If you want to try it out, Nigellas, I have an extra unopened tube that I could put in the mail to you. Just let me know.

Shoot! I guess I should have waited a bit longer before ordering it (I was getting antsy since I'm triggering on Friday). Thanks everyone for your input (and Thanks J&K for the offer!) If this doesn’t work out I'll definitely look into FemGlide.
