The Science of ConceivEase™

“For those couples trying to conceive and require a lubricant, we recommend one that demonstrates low spermicidal activity, has minimal inhibitory effects on sperm motility, is easy and safe to use, and is fertility friendly. ConceivEase™ meets all of these criteria.”
Dr. William Kutteh

“Commercial lubricants tested in this study demonstrated variable toxicity to sperm ranging from complete loss of motility at 15 to 60 minutes. Sperm motility of ConceivEase™ was indistinguishable from modified human tubular fluid medium at 60 minutes.” “A reduction in the sperm motility was observed with all lubricants tested except for ConceivEase™. An observable bilayer of ConceivEase™ and seminal fluid may contribute to this favorable environment by providing a barrier to oxidation, pH fluctuation, and other micro environmental changes.”
