How to use the Reference Library
This site lists scientific references in key topic areas that may be helpful to you. You can find short summaries of the papers (abstracts) you are interested in through the National Library of Medicine PubMed (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed/). This provides access to over 12 million journal articles in life sciences, including reproduction. The easiest way to use PubMed is to enter the title of an article you want to view, or you can enter terms you are interested (for example sperm and lubricants). then click on each article of interest to see a short paragraph (abstract) to read. If you are really interested in one of the papers, then you can receive a copy of the whole contents to read and discuss with your doctor.
Abstract links from several papers having to deal with Pre~Seed, a new "sperm friendly" vaginal moisturizer, that have not undergone full publication (and therefore are not on PubMed yet) are also provided at this site.
As you evaluate papers in an area of interest to you, you can also find national leaders that you may want to approach for clinical assistance and/or referrals elsewhere. It is fine to contact the scientist/clinicians that do these studies. The worse that can happen is they will ignore you! But then again they may be able to help you.
