Does regular use of body lubricants affect women's health?
First of all, the following analysis is based on correct use, and there is no wrong use behavior (such as eating or touching other five senses). As far as I know, water-soluble lubricants (such as KY, whose main components are water, glycerol and propylene glycol) are widely used at present, which can not only reduce skin friction damage, but also sterilize and prevent microbial erosion. It is cleaner because of its good volatility and absorbability. (However, it should be noted that glycerin can irritate eyes and skin. Prolonged exposure can lead to headache, nausea and vomiting. It is found that the water-soluble lubricant mentioned above is not popular in western countries either! It is a pure natural human lubricant extracted from plants such as corn, beets and roses. The famous brand is WetStuff, which contains only natural ingredients and preservatives. Needless to say, the commonly used vaseline, although not completely absorbed, can also moisturize the skin. However, because it is a petroleum product, mainly made of mineral oil or petroleum, it has poor hydrophilicity and is easy to get greasy everywhere. Mainly used for lubrication of parts with more wrinkles (the topic is limited to women, and it is less involved here). Because it can dissolve latex, it should never be used with latex condoms. The same is true of oily lubricants. Dissolved latex is not easy to decompose in human body, which may induce female vaginitis. In addition, for a few people, there are more choices: water-soluble lubricants evaporate quickly, and there is also a water-fat human lubricant that can be selected for a longer time. This lubricant is also a newly developed safety ingredient. The main component of silicone lubricant is silicone, which has good waterproof performance and is very suitable for underwater use. However, this lubricant will damage toys made of silica gel, and will remain in the human body if used. In addition, additives that can produce cold feeling include mint essential oil, vanilla plant extract, silicone oil and so on. Heat sensation is piperine and essential oil (plant-based heat sensation is easy). These additives won't hurt as long as you don't eat too much.
