★☆☆☆☆WARNING!
I had used astroglide with warming last week and immediately I got bacterial vaginosis, my lymph nodes swelled, and I had a herpes outbreak (worst one in about 15 years).
I am not sure if the astroglide caused the BV and outbreak because I have used regular astroglide before with no problems. It could also be the lidocaine my boyfriend used to desensitize his penis and prolong his erection.
If anyone knows about lidocaine or astroglide causing BV and herpes outbreaks; let me know.
I am currently taking L-Lysine capsules (2000 mg a day), ACV, Acidopolis, and Folic acid.

I was reading the Herpes pages, and someone mentioned to avoid foods and drinks with arginine. I think everyone should know that virtually all sex lubricants on the market contain arginine! I have not been able to find one that did not contain this, and it causes outbreaks immediately.
