OptiLube is the UK's number one sterile lubricating jelly in the NHS — developed, manufactured, and trusted in British clinical settings for use across a wide range of examinations and procedures. It is now available for safe, confident home use, bringing the same sterile, medical-grade standard to your personal care routine.
Petroleum-free, hormone-free, and water-soluble — OptiLube is designed to stay where you need it, reduce discomfort during insertion, and leave no residue. Made in the UK.
The number one sterile lubricant in the NHS — made in the UK
OptiLube is developed and manufactured in the United Kingdom to the exacting standards required for NHS clinical use. When you choose OptiLube, you are choosing the same product used by healthcare professionals in hospitals and clinics across the country — not a consumer imitation of a clinical product.
Why OptiLube for pelvic health
For Kegel8 customers, sterile lubrication is not a luxury — it is often a clinical necessity. OptiLube is the lubricant of choice for:
| Use | Why sterility matters |
| Vaginal and anal dilator therapy | Dilator therapy involves repeated internal use with sensitive or healing tissue. A sterile, non-irritating lubricant reduces the risk of discomfort and infection at every session. |
| Post-surgical recovery | Following pelvic surgery, perineal repair, or gynaecological procedures, sterile lubrication supports comfortable, safe resumption of internal therapy or intimacy. |
| Vaginal dryness | For women experiencing vaginal dryness associated with menopause or hormonal changes, a hormone-free, petroleum-free sterile jelly offers reliable, non-irritating comfort without affecting the natural microbiome. |
| Pelvic examination prep | Before internal examinations or pelvic floor physiotherapy appointments, OptiLube provides the same preparation standard used clinically. |
| Enema and bowel care | For use alongside the Reprop Clyster enema kit range, OptiLube provides safe, comfortable lubrication for rectal tube insertion. |
Why sterile matters — and what makes OptiLube different
Most lubricants sold for personal use are not sterile. They are clean, but not sterile — a meaningful distinction when you are using a product internally, particularly with compromised, sensitive, or healing tissue.
| Feature | Detail |
| Sterile formula | Manufactured to clinical sterility standards — the same as the product used in NHS settings. Not simply clean; genuinely sterile. |
| Water-soluble | Rinses away cleanly with water. No residue, no staining, no build-up on tissue or medical devices. |
| Petroleum-free | Unlike petroleum-based lubricants, OptiLube will not degrade latex or silicone devices and is safe for use with medical instruments and devices. |
| Hormone-free | Contains no hormones — suitable for women who are unable to use or prefer to avoid hormonal products. |
| Stays in place | The transparent jelly formula adheres to surfaces and instruments without dripping — providing consistent lubrication exactly where it is needed. |
| Made in the UK | Developed and manufactured in the United Kingdom to NHS supply standards. |
Available formats
| Format | Best for |
| 5g tube | First-time users, travel, or occasional use. Compact and convenient — enough for a single application or a short course of dilator therapy. |
| 113g tube | Regular home use. The most cost-effective format for ongoing dilator therapy, enema use, or managing vaginal dryness. Flip-cap for easy opening and reapplication. Remains sterile for up to 3 months once opened. |
OptiLube is a medical device. For external and internal personal use. Avoid use if you have a known sensitivity to any ingredient. If you experience irritation, discontinue use. Not a contraceptive. Keep out of reach of children. This product is shipped within the UK only.
