Does Saliva Prevent Conception?

hello doctor,
I am trying to concieve for last 3 months. My husband and I have done all the necessary tests and everything is normal. We are considering to use preseed going forth. would you have any suggestion for us? Should we continue to try normaly (without lubrication) for few more months? We do use saliva at times. Does this interfere with pregnancy?
Thanks...

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion saliva doesn't interfere with conception or affect the sperm vitality.So you can continue .Dont worry.Some of the artificial lubricants might be spermicidal so better not to use them.
