Yes! Personal lubricants are used for a variety of reasons but most often to enhance intimacy or to reduce discomfort and pain during intercourse. If you and your partner prefer to use lubrication during intimacy, know that you do not have to put away the lube when trying to conceive. In fact, use of a quality lube while trying to conceive can help relieve discomfort that can result from hurried foreplay or increased sexual activity during her fertile window.

Some popular vaginal lubricants have been shown to negatively affect sperm motility. We’re not naming names, but you can read the medical journals here and here. BioGenesis™ is different. Our product is specially formulated to support an optimal environment for fertility, a claim that is backed by FDA clearance and verified by a qualified doctor of obstetrics and gynecology. BioGenesis is a water based, hydroxyethylcellulose formula. That’s exactly what is recommended by doctors at the Mayo Clinic because that combination closely mimics a woman's natural moisture and does not inhibit the movement of sperm. Where many lubricants can slow sperm movement, BioGenesis™ supports all phases of fertility. But the biggest difference between BioGenesis™ and other fertility lubricants is that BioGenesis is safe both for sperm and for the vagina. Healthy vaginal pH is about 3.5 to 4.5. The pH of semen is usually 7.2 to 7.8. Our scientifically advanced BioGenesis is unique – the first fertility lubricant that uses what doctors call a “low buffering action” so that the lubrication adapts its pH during intercourse, simultaneously maintaining a healthy vaginal pH while supporting sperm viability. Other fertility lubricants are safe for sperm by having a high pH, which is damaging to vaginal tissue. Calcium and magnesium have long been known as critical to fertilization. We’ve added ions of both to BioGenesis to support the process of sperm movement and egg penetration that ultimately result in pregnancy. Combine those with premium ingredients and supporting lactic acid and you have a lubricant that enhances intimacy, reduces discomfort, and matches your own fertile fluids to create an optimal environment for conception.

We’ve included two reusable, easy-to-use and easy-to-clean applicators. BioGenesis™ is intended to be applied inside the vagina immediately before intercourse. One 2-ounce tube should provide about 12 applications. BioGenesis is water-based and cleans up easily.

We developed BioGenesis™ with the help of leading scientists to meet the high expectations of our customers. The formula uses natural ingredients and contains no petrochemicals, parabens, glycerin, or glycol. BioGenesis is also part of our Bio-Match® family of products - promoting conditions that match optimal vaginal pH and salt balance. This lubricant is FDA cleared, compatible with latex and polyisoprene condoms as well as sex toys and it will provide smooth, lasting lubrication.
