Astroglide is a  lubricant. It is sold over the counter. It can be used for
sex as well as for vaginal exams. It is clear and gentle with no stickiness
and no harsh smell. I find that it works for clients who are sometimes
sensitive to stonger substances. Astroglide does not contain non-oxynol 9,
(the spermicide found to kill HIV and other STDs) in many lubricants.

I recommend it to postpartum women who are feeling ready to resume
intercourse yet and are concerned about adequate lubrication. I use it in my
birth kit for vaginal exams.

I've seen it in shops that sell only condoms as well as in the pharmacy
section of big department stores in the USA.

Astroglide will send samples to HCPs. Their number is 1.800.325.56.95

Can't tell ya where the snow is, dear (deeya), as we ain't got none o that
here (heeya).
