TTC and Personal Lubricants

I was just reading this article online about personal lubricants and how most of them interfere with sperm motility.  I am TTC and I normally use K-Y Jelly.  I also read (from the same article) that Pre-Seed is a good lubricant but they don't sell it in my country - is there any other lubricant (natural ones included) that I could use that won't mess with the sperm? Thanks in advance.

Joy, thanks so much for help with what to look for! The seller has A LOT of feedback, 99.9% of it positive (yay!) so I went ahead and ordered the Pre-Seed.  My first purchase on Ebay - exciting, LOL.  Will update when my order gets to me.  Thanks again :-)

Oh my- I have bought a TON on Ebay. And I've sold a ton on Ebay. Make sure you check the seller's feedback (will be beside their username). If they have over 97% positive feedback and at least 100 feedbacks I'd trust them.

You do get what the item description is so definitely read very carefully! You want an unopened and unused package.

Thanks for the replies :)  I'm not too sure about the petroleum jelly and the egg whites (not sure what my DH would think of them, LOL) so I'm checking Ebay right now (thanks Joy) and it looks promising ... I''ve never bought anything on Ebay so I'm wondering if it's safe and do you get the actual stuff you ordered?  It works out to be quite a bit of money with my exchange rate so I want to be wise about this

PreSeed is the ONLY sperm-friendly lubricant. All the others kill sperm or affect them in some way.

You could try Ebay or Amazon for PreSeed. I know that some people do sell them on there.

You may also want to read up on Vaseline (petroleum jelly). Perhaps that does not harm sperm? Though it is very sticky.
