Did anyone here get their BFP with it?
I read in another forum that:
"PreSeed is not regarded as such a great idea for a lubricant as it may in fact be harmful to sperm after all."
but I couldn't find anything on the web that confirms this.
Has anyone else heard this?

I now believe that PCOS can slow the body's reaction to hormones like clomid. WAIT TWO MONTHS before starting another cycle of clomid!!!

Last time was a m/c and this time will hopefully go to term, but that's not really related to the preseed at all. My point is that apparently it either works or it doesn't hurt! I have not heard that it is harmful to sperm. I have known several people to get bfp's while using it. Still, I suppose if I had gobs and gobs of EWCM, I wouldn't bother with it... why add anything else to the mix? But without good CM, I would definitely take that chance!

My Mood: Points: 1,526.40 Bank: 437.20 Total Points: 1,963.60 | I've only heard one bad thing about it. On another board I visit there was one lady who's RE told her not to use it because her husband had bad all around SA results. Said sometimes pre-seed is too thick and can actually slow some of those bad swimmers down too much. But her doctor was also a HUGE nay-sayer of a lot of things natural...very much so a "well science hasn't proven it so it won't work" kind of guy. Was very against acupuncture and herbal supplements saying that they don't work at all.........right......
So take what he said about the pre-seed with a grain of salt. I've never heard anything else bad about it.
