Why does lube burn me




















These are the most common symptoms of a lube-related allergy, according to Dr. If you experience an allergic reaction, wash the area with soap and warm water, and if the allergy doesn't clear up or subside within a day, call your doctor to discuss. You'll also want to stop using the product immediately, no matter how much you or your partner may enjoy it.

Dweck explained that there are three varieties of lubricants : water-based, silicone-based, and oil-based these are natural options like coconut oil and olive oil. When choosing the right lubricant for you, there are a few things to keep in mind.

First, if you tend to have sensitive skin, choose a lubricant that has as few ingredients as possible. This is especially important if you have a specific skin issue, like eczema or psoriasis.

Dweck recommends Uberlube to her patients, which consists only of vitamin E and silicone. If you don't have sensitive skin but are prone to yeast infections , steer clear of lubricants that contain glycerin. There's also a spermicide in some lubricants that can cause irritation and even increase risk of infection in some women who use it, she added — you'll find it on the label as Nonoxynol Regardless of the reaction, remember that you're probably not allergic to lubricant itself, but an ingredient in the lubricant, so it's important to take note of everything that's on the label.

Make sure to test the lubricant on a small area first before going all in, and don't buy flavored lubricants or ones with ingredients that cause a warming sensation if you know your skin is sensitive. And again, any infection changes the pH of your vaginal tissues, which can then cause problems that result in a burning sensation.

Some condoms come pre-lubed or with spermicide applied, which could be the culprit for that burning sensation you feel. The most common spermicide is nonoxynol-9 and can cause mild to severe allergic reactions for both women and men.

These can be caused by too much sex with a dry vagina, which is yet another reason to utilize a great lube. Yeah, this may seem kind of weird, but it works by getting good bacteria into your vaginal tissues, which will help prevent problems and heal them. Do it more than once if you're experiencing vaginal burning — three to five days usually works to clear things up. A sitz bath is where you sit your bottom in a shallow tub of warm water to ease the symptoms of a yeast infection or other irritations.

Add a few drops of tea tree oil and a cup of vinegar to your water to help cleanse and fight infections. Cantharis is a homeopathic remedy made from green beetles that can help with bladder infections or anytime you experience a burning sensation when peeing — especially after sex. Try squirting a pH-balanced lube, like Yoni Bliss — the one I created using homeopathic healing components that address the underlying issues of dryness and irritability — before having sex.

You can also use it daily to improve the integrity of your vaginal tissues. This will prepare your vagina for the act and can help prevent tears, especially if you're experiencing dryness.

We all deserve sexual satisfaction, and sometimes you just need a little help to get there. And there you have it! I get lots of questions about lubricant.

You mention two key ingredients to avoid—parabens and glycerin. Parabens are added to many body products as a preservative, and glycerin is added to lubes to make them slippery. All of the products that Sliquid makes are paraben-free and glycerin-free, so I recommend starting with their H20 liquid lube or Sassy gel lube, as those have the fewest ingredients.

You also mention aloe. If people are looking for organic lubricants or lubes that are moisturizing, aloe can be a good choice—just stick with brands that are mostly aloe rather than brands that just use aloe as one of many other ingredients.
