Does saliva kill sperm? So don't going down when TTC

Question

Just seeing if it's best not to go down when TTC since I heard saliva may kill sperm

Answer

No, saliva doesn't kill sperm, however it affects their mobility making it more difficult for his little swimmers to travel up and fertilize the egg. So if you are TTC, I recommend using a sperm friendly lubricant like preseed.

Answer

What? Oral on him? Because if he comes from a blow job surely your not going to then. Stick it in you to get pregnant? And giving him a blow job during foreplay isn't going to the kill sperm that hasn't even come out yet? and if he does down on your after? The sperm will already be inside you?

Answer

You mean like using spit as lube? That's what we used instead of our usual Swiss navy and I got pregnant in 2 cycles.

Answer

I've read on Google:
The results indicate that saliva has a deleterious effect on sperm motility and activity and should not be encouraged as a vaginal lubricant for the infertile. 
So it can affect sperm when TTC.

Answer

Everything I've read states that saliva aka spit is bad when TTC, it harms the sperm and as always you'll see people who say it worked for them but everyone's different. They make special lubes for TTC that mimic your natural fluids. Good luck hun
