Hello everybody,
Just a quick comment about olive oil or any other oil-based lubricants.
IF you are interested in avoiding pregnancy at this point in your lives and are using condoms for contraception, all the oil-based and petroleum-based lubes are a big no-no…because they weaken the condoms, often leading them to break. If avoiding pregnacy is NOT your intention, then they are fine. Many women also swear by coconut oil.
Regards to all,
