Hello, today I am here to tell you that you should be using lube. But, you say, I’m not having anal sex and I don’t experience vaginal dryness. It doesn’t matter, you should be using lube. Many young women think that lube is something reserved for women of a certain age, when in reality, it’s something that everyone can benefit from.

Lube can make sex more comfortable and pleasurable; a lot of pain and discomfort during intercourse can be helped by the addition of lube. And while that is pretty serious business, lube can also make things more fun. There are a ton of lubes out there that are flavored, which can be a great way to mix things up and be a little silly (sex doesn’t always have to be serious!) Just make sure to read the ingredients and stay away from anything you know you’re allergic/ have a sensitivity to. And if you’re using condoms, make sure to stay away from oil-based lubes which can break down latex. Check out our recommended lubes and because every body is different, you might need to try out a few before you find your forever-lube.

There is enough friction in the world, but it doesn’t need to get in the way of having pleasurable and satisfying sex.

If you continue to experience pain during intercourse, contact us for a free 10-minute phone consultation. We’ll help you figure out the cause, and find the treatment that works for you.
