Q: Can a water based lubricant be used along with this during intercourse?
A: This works with water or oil based lubricant; you must insert the film first and allow it to dissolve.
submitted bykdapothecus - 7 years agoA: Yes, you can use water based lubricant, but I would recommend you insert this first, so it doesn't dissolve on your hands (hands need to be dry). Or you can also consider using a spermicide that could double as a lubricant.
submitted byPlaytex user - 8 years agoA: We use KY. This is not runny and does not work as a lubricant. Make sure you allow it to dissolve for about 15 minutes.

Q: Does it sting for the man?
A: The only reason there would be any irritation/ burning would be due to an allergic reaction from the products main ingredient (nonoxynol9). If so, we advise not using any product with nonoxynol9.
