A member asked:

Can you use grapeseed oil as a lubricant or does it cause yeast infections ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Grapeseed oil: If you feel that the lubricating quality of this material is satisfactory then there should not be a greater incidence of secondary yeast infection than with other lubricants or with nothing at all but your own secretions. Go at it.
