I've seen a few articles about using mucinex to help stimulate prodcution of EWCM - anyone tried this with success? It actually started out that I was doing research to see if it was OK to take while TTC - my sinuses are driving me crazy and I had some to take - well if it helps TTC I'll take an extra one! lol j/k sticking to the dosage! Just so happens that I should O saturday or sunday.

Thanks ladies!

I tried both Mucinex and evening primrose oil on my last cycle and got both alot more EWCM and a BFP.  I took the oil 3 times a day from the 1st day of my cycle until I O'd, and took the Mucinex every 4 hrs from the day my CM started changing.  We also used the Instead Cups each time we BD'd.

I'm not sure what of the three made the difference for us or if it was a combination of all of them.

Good luck!

Mucinex does not stimulate production of EWCM -- it just thins out that which you already have.  Also, it has to be the kind with no letters behind it -- just plain mucinex.

If you want to produce more, evening primrose oil, baby carrots, and green tea are good things to try.

Hey Liz,

I used preseed the cycle I got pregnant and we both drank a lot of green tea, and we both stopped drinking caffeine and alcohol and i think that combo did the trick!  Good luck!!!!!

 I used musinex  this last cycle when I got my BFP. I took 2 tablets a day for the week before O. As Ann said it helped thin out my CM that I already had. I will try it again after my next period when we get back to ttc. I had my appt. today with the doc and they said there is nothing left in my uterus so we can start ttc in Nov. My hcg is down to 30. Good luck Liz. I wish you all the best.
