Cold or warm KY?

I've never seen warm KY. The tube is usually laying on the counter in the doctors office so in real life it is never heated. Doing an exam you could put it in your hand for a minute to warm it up, the thought never occurred to me. I think it would stay on a nozzle better cold. Using coconut oil for a lube as soon as it warms up it gets very runny.

Never used warm KY or had it used warmed up on myself, it's normally just at room temperature. I don't know how you would warm it up or if you can warm it up as it might go too runny....

Some higher end exam tables have warming drawers or warming trays that warm instruments and lubricating jelly up to body temperature. I would guess this type exam table would be more prevalent in OB/GYN practices. Thats the only place I’ve seen them. I’ve never seen one in primary care but they could be there too.

Normally I’ll keep it room temperature but for punishment exams etc I have ran it under cold water or put it in ice for a few minutes or refrigerate for a few minutes

I like cold ky. I love that feeling on the rectal temperature taking.

Cold KY especially if an RT is involved

I like cold lubricant. When I had my first prostate exam I was pleasantly surprised by the feeling of the cool finger slipping in.
