CERVICAL MUCUS ISSUES

by Alba333, Nov 06, 2009 06:34PM
Hello ladies, I was wondering has anyone out there had success using  Evening Primrose oil or Chase Tree extract to help improve their cervical mucus?  I noticed some time ago that according to everything I'm reading online about conceiving seems to point at good CM. So, I started paying closer attention to mine, suddenly I noticed that there was not much and not of the texture that it should be, for ideal conditions to conceive in.  I then started taking this along with  Matcha Green tea powder drinking ample amounts of Grapefruit juice and eating baby carrots when ever I can remember.  This is all on top of Prenatals and Fish Oils so I'm sure now that I'm not lacking in any nutrients. I just wondered if anyone was familiar with these remedies and if you have had success with them.   Just anxious!!!

Hi! I have heard of this, is this just for CM or is it a lubricant? Thanks for the advice!

I really increased my fluid intake just before ovulation and I also took robitussin.  In addition, I used preseed.  Preseed is a lubricant, but it mimics cm, so it still helps provide that fertile enviroment that sperm need.  If you are going to try robitussin, make sure it's the kind that has robitussin as the only active ingredient and take a few teaspoons a day starting 5 or 6 days before ovulation.  Stop as soon as you ovulate.  Also, avoid caffeine and alcohol around that time as it can dehydrate you, and drink lots and lots of water.  All these things help.  Good luck to you!

You mean Guaifenesin right? That's the ingredient to look for?  I'm taking the pill form 400 mg. 1 every 4 hours.  I'm serous when I mean I'm taking everything under the sun!!!  Thanks for the tip!

Your definately on the right track.  I use Evening Primrose Oil because it is great for balancing your hormones, which effects your cm.  I also, take lots of other vitamins and minerals that are food derived so that the absorption rate is greater.  GOD BLESS!!

You might also want to try Vitex(all natural), which also helps balance your hormones and cycle.  I just started taking 30 drops/3times a day, everyday up until AFshows and so far it has kept my progesterone levels high and I know I'm balanced because I feel great.

Hi There,

I did use eve of primrose oil, plus fertile CM and for the firt time ever, I had ewcm.   However, when I went on clomid, it dried right up.

I did not have EW cm for at least 8 months. All I got were BFN's every month.After taking EPO,drinking lots of water,and folic acid 400mg a day. I really credit the Evening primrose oil for my BFP!! I am 44 years old and going into my 3rd month of pregnancy!!
Good luck to you and I am sending you lots of baby dust!!******************************************************************************************************
