Hey everyone just wondering if anyone used pre-seed and if so do you think it helped? Trying for my second and debating if I should use pre-seed or not.

We used pre-seed. I wound up pregnant on cycle #3. My husband's skin is super sensitive and made his skin all chaffed for days on end. I haven't heard of the other stuff that the ladies mentioned here but might be worth a shot! I also kept my legs & hips elevated after we baby danced for at least 30 minutes. We also didn't use pre-seed as directed but used it as regular lube.

we used it in the months leading up to the bfp, but the month we conceived was actually not preseed. it doesn't kill sperm and is supposed to have the same ph as your body...

I used a sperm friendly lube called Zestica, which is pretty much the same and you can buy it a Shopper's Drug Mart in Canada. It doesn't "help" concieve, it just makes sex more comfortable if you don't produce alot of your own secretions. I never had EWCM, so it just made sex more enjoyable. I used it for about 4 months before I got my BFP.
BFP #1: 12/26/11, EDD 09/05/12; m/c discovered: 02/22/12 @ 12w u/s, D&C: 03/08/12 Waited for AF for 146 long days! Hysteroscopy/D&C on July 10th to fix blocked cervix (DX: Cervical Stenosis) BFP #2 12/8/12, EDD 08/21/13 Our rainbow arrived 08/24/13!
DH and I purchased pre-seed lube two days before we got our BFP! We never ended up using it so we returned it. I am not sure if it really makes a huge difference but if you are having TTTC I would try it.
Pre-Seed is not meant to be a fertility aid but simply act as a stand in lubricant that is sperm friendly. Can't hurt, but not sure if it alone helped.
We used preseed before getting a BFP, but we had also used it for the 6 months prior to getting it as well, so I don't think it necessarily contributed to getting a BFP. We like to use lube, so we decided to use the sperm friendly one.
I used preseed with DS internally because I didnt have a lot of CM. It helped. This time around we used conceive plus because DH said preseed "smelled funky" and It worked just as well.
I used it the month I got KU with DD and the month I got KU with this pregnancy. I never used it any other month. It could be a coincidence, but that's all I can tell you!

We did. We usually use lube for sex, so when we were TTC we needed to switch to something that was "sperm-friendly". I'd say if you don't have problems with needing lubrication, don't bother - but if you need extra lubrication, go for it!
That's a great way to get a UTI, please don't suggest other people try
it.
It might not be the smartest move but I know a lot of women do it.
As for preseed. We used it this last time after 16 months of trying everything. We finally got pregnant and to a certain extent think it helped. What's the harm in trying it?
Thanks for the UTI information, the OB told me to prop my hips. So I went by what she told me. As for the lube, we have used Astroglid for years and it never chaffed his skin so not all lube is alike. So maybe you should research the variety of lubes before making fun of my husband's condition.

Re: Did anyone here use Pre-Seed?
We used something similar. Conceive Plus. Got in on amazon.
I had some friends that really didn't like pre-seed, so I tried something else.
Did it help? Who knows. But I was willing to try anything.

We used preseed. A little goes a very long way. We got pregnant on cycle number 3 TFAS.
