A member asked:
Can maple syrup be safely used as lube on my condom?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a good idea: Water soluble lubricant like surglube, lubafax, aqualube etc are ideal. Maple syrup is very sticky, could lead to infection because germs love sugar. Advice is don't use maple syrup for this purpose.
