They say it increases Your CM which is why its supposed to help you conceieve! So i would say yea go ahead but dont take it too much as it can be addicting! Good luck on your journey!

you also need to drink lots of water when doing this, or it doesn't increase CM.

The rule is to use one that only contains ONE ingredient- guafenesin (spelling?). I think Mucinex is the only thing I could find at my pharmacy. And it will only be beneficial if you are not producing good quality and amounts of your own cervical mucous during ovulation.

If you're not ovulating it won't help you ovulate.

Thanks for the great advice. I eat very well, and drink plenty of water. I am trying the presseed and cough syrup this cycle. Wish me luck!
