Suggest Alternative Lubricant In Place Of KY Jelly

Posted on Fri, 10 Jul 2015

Question: I usually use KY Jelly for sexual intercourse with my wife (age 35) to avoid her pain due to dryness. Actually the pain comes due to her fear for intercourse.
Now KY Jelly is not available in Bangalore-India. What is the good alternative for KY Jelly now? Please suggest a lubricant that can be used with or without condom.
I also like to know whether oral sex with my partner will cause cancer?

Vaseline can be used as a lubricant ( pure Vaseline petroleum jelly ).
SImple sterile water is also an excellent lubricant.
If she is properly aroused, there should be no need for a lubricant.
Please consult a gynecologist, she might be having psychological fear of sex.
She can be taught gradual vaginal dilatation with a dilator / fingers.
Hope this helps you.
