Femglide is glycerin free. I use that. The gylcerin free lube say 'good for diabetics' on them. I always got frequent yeast infections so I use the glycerin free stuff. I get Femglide online at drugstore.com

Well, pure oils have no glycerin - emu oil, extra virgin olive oil,

coconut oil, etc. We also sometimes use lubricants from Sympathical

Formulas - I don't think they have glycerin but not sure.

Glycerin is produced in a chemical reaction using oils/fats and another product

such as lye, to make soap. Glycerin is a by-product of the soap making

industry.

Some lubes can be irritating. And not everyone is sensitive to the

same things. I swear by astroglide, but there are others who have

had irritation from this and can use almond oil and the like which

cause yeast infections for me. So go figure. I think the best thing

you can do is to try a few things out until you find the right lube.
