I have heard that saliva kills sperm. I was just wondering if anyone in here has heard of this and knows of anything about it?
I must admit I have never heard of that before. It sounds weird though, def wouldnt of thought of that.
Would like to find out if its true or not!
Yup I have heard the same thing. This quote is from a women's health website.
:
...saliva decreases sperm movement and progression.
Yeah I heard that too. So no BJs ladies. 8-[
Oh, So it is true.
Very Weird.
Yes i agree, no BJ's, well not in the middle of the month anyway. hehehe
that is very weird indeed!!
I have been reading a lot lately as we have been ttc for a long time.
all i came across was that we should not use any lubricants and we should use saliva or egg whites as an alternative.
erm....
Clearly didn't affect me conceiving :oops: :lol:
hehehe
Oh, So is it actually true or not???
Why no lubricants?:
Kylie - :lol: :lol: :lol:
Same reason Jane. They are not sperm friendly.
mmmm back to square one.
You can't seriously tell me that people use actual egg white - that is so gross. :rolleyes: But compared to everything else, I suppose not really.
I can't believe that people actually do it either Jane. :shock: No way I am sticking part of a chicken up my hoohaa.
:cryinglaugh: :cryinglaugh: :cryinglaugh:
Oh Nat!
:chairfall:
hehehehehe, Oh you girls are sooooo funny.
If you can't use Lubricants or Suliva, is there anything else apart from egg white that people can use? Interesting to know.
People use that pre seed stuff which is apparently expensive. We don't use anything extra :lol: :lol::
apparent;y nothing other than saliva and egg whites are safe and sperm friendly.
some of us are lucky and dont need any extra...
apparently.....do not quote me on this.....but some women who lack cervical mucous have claimed that egg whites did the same thing and helped carry the sperm through the cervix.
I have heard that this is not true and its only used for lubricating.
interesting though
I also read that saliva is no good for trying to conceive. DH and I avoided oral sex for months while TTC. We got so fed up one month and decided we would just do things how we want and forget all the rules and regulations, and guess what...BFP. So it can't do too much harm.
Hell, I am not going to give up oral for spermies!! I love it too much :oops:
Well i am starting to think that Suliva killing Sperm is just another Myth, Cause there are ladies out there falling Pregnant.
So it obviously can't hurt.
So yes, Tamara, I am with you, I am not giving up Oral. :oops:
Very interesting girls...........
One says yes..........
The next says no............
I guess there is a no win situation here............
Im with Tamara............While we still enjoy it, keep on doing it........
Im thinking there is no harm to it........... :-k
Maybe it depend on what you have just eaten. Like if you eat a pineapple which is very acidic maybe it could make your saliva more acidic or something? 8-[ :-k
I was just about to post something saying a similar thing....
maybe it does depend on what u have eaten and what is still lingering on your tongue..
Hi Bambi
Yes saliva can reduce the sperms ability to travel where you want it to.
But the effects are small and some researchers say that it is insignificant
