A member asked:

Will olive oil as lubricant damage or harm sperm or motility? try to conceive

Specializes in Adolescent Medicine

No: I assume you are using the olive oil as an external lubricant. It sounds like it might be very sexy. Don't waste a very expensive oil doing this. The lubricious quality of the oil should be best utilized in sparking the excitement of the evening, not in lubricating your sexual organs. Enjoy!
