Is olive oil (says medicated on the bottle but 100% extra virgin olive oil in the ingredients) safe to ise as lube for vaginal masturbation?

Hi lugosi!

'Medicated' makes it's sound like something was added to it! So I would avoid the particular bottle you have.

When putting anything in/on your body I'd check that it's for that purpose.

Well this is what i thought, its for use in ears and it only says that it is 100% extra virgin on the side there is no indication, could there be sperm in it?

The only place anyone is ever going to find sperm cells is: in the testes, the urethra, on the penis, inside a condom, inside a piece of toilet paper someone with a penis used, etc., or at the sperm bank. Bottles of olive oil are not sold with sperm cells in them. I'm not sure I understand why you'd think that. Would you like some links to factual information about reproduction?

That said, I wouldn't use something made for the ears on the vulva or inside the vagina, myself. Of course, if it says it's medicated, you can look at the ingredients and see for yourself what's in it, and if it's something you should or shouldn't use.

Yes please, I cannot get any info on whats in it, what do you think would be the WORST case scenario?

Hi lugosi,

This is the article to start with! Human Reproduction: A Seafarer's Guide

If you cannot get any information on what is in it, then I would advise against using it just because there could be something that reacts unpleasantly with your vagina or vulva. If you're in need of lube, do you have the ability to go to a drug store and find some to use?

Thankyou, im afraid not, would i need any methods of contraception if i masturbated with olive oil?

Can you explain to me, especially after reading that piece, why you feel olive oil -- just olive oil -- is something that could create a pregnancy?

I think it may just be anxiety, probably due to a new experience. I trust you though, thankyou for you help.

I'd say that if your anxiety is at a level where it literally isn't letting any facts through, even when you're looking right at them, and it has you believing things that are literally totally-out-there fiction, it might be time to look into getting some help with it, if you aren't already.

If you'd like help finding help for your anxiety, let us know, and we'd be glad to make some suggestions.

Thankyou for your help, I'm waiting for a referral atm.

I guess what i really need to know is would sperm live in the oil?

I already answered this for you clearly. But again, it sounds like your anxiety just isn't letting reality in. And there's just no way we can make that happen. The way to get there is to get help with your anxiety, so you'll just have to wait it out on that referral and do self-care to get you there.

I honestly just need a yes/no answer so i know if i need contraception, could just olive oil have caused a pregnancy? Would sperm live in the oil?

I appear to be getting many symptoms.

And I gave you that answer several replies ago:

I understand you are experiencing anxiety which has you thinking irrationally, and I'm sorry you're having that experience, but a) we lack the capacity to treat anxiety here and b) that doesn't make stepping all over set boundaries, as well as our policies about pregnancy scares here, okay. I'm closing this thread and am asking you to please accept the answer we have given you that olive oil does not contain sperm cells and then do what you can to manage your anxiety.
