I feel silly asking this - as if I’m supposed to know what “pre-seed” means…but I don’t.
What is “pre-seed”?

Yes. As long as it’s used to help along the natural process, it’s fine.
It’s a sperm-friendly lubricant…

It’s a lubricant that is supposed to be more “friendly” to sperm than normal K-Y or what have you. (I feel like I’m not supposed to know this since I’m not married yet, haha, but it was in one of my NFP books.)
I really don’t see why it wouldn’t be okay…it’s not blocking your openness to life, which is the big thing. But I’d like to see what others have to say.

I have never heard of this. Does regular lubricant (that you find in a pharmacy) harm sperm? If so, then I would assume it is a sin to use, right?
I would really like to know, because of meds I am on, lubrication is much needed.

I think the debate is still out on regular lubricants… even though they aren’t “spermicides”, some claim that the substances may still not be “sperm friendly”…
I don’t think it’s a sin since it’s not used as a spermicide (nor is it advertised as one)… it’s just one of those gray areas as to how it actually affects certain people, kwim?
But not a sin.

Supposedly KY’s do harm sperm, some of the others claim they don’t but who knows. Pre-Seed can be bought at several places online amazon and others, we found out about it from reading infertility blogs. Pre-Seed does not harm sprem.

Pre-seed is great. I highly recommend it and it was recommended to us by Pope Paul VI Institute.

Yes, PreSeed is OK
We too use the Creighton Model…
My very Catholic and NFP RE recommended we use it because of low CM…only it is not available in Canada …would have to order it online from the US…

Yes, Pre-Seed is fine. If you are ttc, I highly recommend it…
I started using it after starting fertility medications that caused me to “dry up” and I really liked it. We got pregnant after the first cycle of using it, so I wouldn’t use it if you were trying to avoid using NFP, but if you are trying to start a family, go for it!
