I am 28 year old married for 6 months. I am having painful intercourse due to vaginal dryness so we are using coconut oil as lubricant. I am planning to conceive, will this affect my chance of pregnancy? Last time I had my periods on 4th november. I had sex on 18,19,20th dec. This time I had periods on 4th dec. I have used coconut oil as lubricant. Is that because I am not pregnant?

Hi dear Don’t use coconut oil Use KY jelly or similar jellies available in the market. They are used for the same purpose. Also you need to talk to ur partner about vaginal dryness because that means that the sexual act is lacking enough foreplay and u are having to rely on coconut oil for lubrication at this age. Take care 😊
