Sexual LubricantThere are widespread reports of the use of coconut oil as a sexual lubricant.[22][23] Because the melting temperature of coconut oil is slightly above room temperature, it will often stay in containers as a solid but then will melt upon contact with genitalia. Like other oil-based intimate lubricants, coconut oil should not be used with latex condoms.

Anecdotal reports recommend liberal application of coconut oil to affected areas after showering.
