Hi ladies, I was wondering if people would share their experiences and opinions on some of the suppliments that are discussed here: Evening Primrose Oil (EPO), Fertilitea, Fertile CM, am I missing any? I'm thinking of trying out something new this cycle to help out with CM, but am a little overwhelmed by all the info available on these from google and the product websites. TIA!
I take a Prenatal every morning, green tea supplements, and false unicorn (they say not to use it if you don't want to get pregnant; used for reproductive health in men and women!)
It hasn't worked for me (yet) but I have noticed more regular cycles
After many years on BCP's, I knew my CM would not be optimal right away. So after one cycle of no fertile quality CM, I started EOP and drinking green tea. Then I added some Mucinex. Last cycle was the first I noticed EWCM for the first time. It wasn't a LOT but it was some.
I may try Fertile CM next cycle, not sure yet.

Have also been trying POM juice, green tea, Robitussin and EPO and I seem to be getting a bit more CM than I am used to (but it is only my 2nd cycle off BC so not sure what is caused by supplements vs nature).
I just started using Evening Primrose Oil this cycle. I had read many reviews that said it may take a few months to build up in your system for you to see a difference, but for me I saw a difference immediately. I have been taking 2, 2,300 mg pills a day. Hope this helps!

I don't usually get a lot of EWCM, so this cycle (cycle 5) i tried Fertile CM tablets, and i think they are great. they really helped with increasing the amount of EWCM i had...
this might really have helped with my odds this cycle... feeling hopeful for a BFP! if it happens i will be thanking Fertile CM tablets...
my advice is don't try too many things in one go... you don't want to shock your body too much in one go!
