What is Conceive Plus Fertility Lubricant?

Yes, Conceive Plus is specifically formulated to be fertility-friendly and is FDA-approved. Unlike standard lubricants which can be spermicidal, Conceive Plus is pH-balanced and clinically proven to maintain sperm motility, making it safe for couples actively trying to conceive.

Regular lubricants often contain ingredients that can damage sperm or create an inhospitable environment for conception. Conceive Plus is specifically designed with an osmolarity and pH that mimics natural fertility conditions, helping to support rather than hinder sperm function.

Whilst the NHS doesn't routinely prescribe fertility lubricants, many private fertility clinics and specialists across the UK do recommend them as a simple, non-invasive way to optimise conception chances. It's worth discussing with your fertility consultant or GP if you're considering using one.

Conceive Plus can be used during natural conception attempts, though if you're undergoing IVF or other assisted reproductive treatments through an NHS or private clinic, you should always check with your fertility specialist first before using any lubricant.

The HFEA recommends seeking fertility advice after 12 months of regular, unprotected intercourse if you're under 35, or after 6 months if you're over 35. Fertility lubricants like Conceive Plus can be introduced anytime during this period as a supportive measure whilst trying naturally.

No, Conceive Plus is available over-the-counter without a prescription and can be purchased from UK retailers, pharmacies, and online. It is not typically available on NHS prescription, though some private fertility clinics may stock or recommend it to patients.

pH-balanced means the lubricant has a similar acidity level to the female reproductive tract, which is typically acidic. A neutral or slightly acidic pH, like that of Conceive Plus, helps protect sperm from damage and supports their survival and motility during the journey to the egg.
