vitamin B6 for increased CM?

I stared taking B6 six days ago. At first, I noticed that EWCM was getting better and this was near my fertile time. However, after about 2 days, the CM just stopped and I became kinda dry with white/sticky cm. Today I'm more wet with more white/creamy CM but I don't understand why B6 isn't working.

Aren't you supposed to take it throughout your whole cyle for CM increase? Why would it just stop?

B6 is not noramlly taken to increase CM, it's normally taken to increase your Progesterone levels and therefore, increase/improve your luteal phase.  I took it for probably a year and yes, it did increase my luteal phase.  But I don't know if it had any affects on my CM.  If you want to increase your CM, try drinking grapefruit or pineapple juice (only up until you O).  They worked wonders for my CM, especially the pineapple juice.

P.S.  I noticed a bit of weight gain while taking the B6 and when I stopped taking it, the extra bloating and pounds dropped.

Good luck!
