A member asked:

What is the best type of lubricant to use with polyurethane condoms?

Dr. Michael Sinclair answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Lots of options: Anything that does not cause skin irritation is just fine. Certain oils can dissolve latex condoms. Avoid the lubricants that have scents added or things to make the skin feel hot. Astroglide and pjur are safe and effective.
