I would hate it for you to take a really long time getting pg and ending up giving up on diet (which happens a lot once those BFNs start to pile up unfortunately.) The conventional wisdom is that the spermicide on condoms IS acidic but I have not tested it personally so I can't say with 100% certainty.

Thank you. I'm still unsure though - it just seems like so many different things when you list them out iykwim? I can't really test how the spermicidal condoms affect me because the strips don't work on me. I don't want to use them and unwittingly be raising my pH sky high - and might my pH be quite high after DTD every day for over a week anyway? Do I even care about pH?! I suppose what I really care about is sperm count. I'm leaning towards using a normal condom and Rephresh but I could be persuaded otherwise! I would use the Rephresh a day or two before our attempt and not on the actual day and I still don't know about the J&D! Suddenly I'm second guessing my plan.

I think sperm count is much more important than pH, because I think pH only matters because it affects sperm count.

But I totally understand anyone not agreeing or wanting to go that way. If it feels safer to go with pH vs. spermicide, then by all means go for it!!!

One more question. How long do you wait before getting up to Jump and dump? Thanks! Thinking I will try it for a cycle or two and if no BFP will drop it. Thanks again.

Right away!!
