Contraceptive Cream?

Question

Is it permissible to use a care cream in the vaginal area before performing a mitzvah, or should one be concerned that it might prevent pregnancy and therefore be prohibited?

Answer

Shalom u'vracha 

If the product does not indicate that it prevents pregnancy, there is no issue with it.
