TTC after 35

Tips for Improving Quality of CM?

We started using Preseed last cycle, but I am open to other suggestions that may be helpful. I've heard of evening primrose oil, but that's about it. Thanks in advance!

Re: Tips for Improving Quality of CM?

  • Do you know if you have CM and it is bad or are you trying to create some (don't hae much).   If you have thick murky CM, plain mucinex will help thin it out.  I took a massive dose of 2400mg as directed by my RE.

  • I tried Fertile CM but didn't see much difference.  I also read about drinking green tea to improve.  I just use preseed and that works well.  FWIW I never get ewcm and don't have issues getting pg.

  • I tried Fertile CM with no difference. I use PreSeed and that seems to make a huge difference, especially if I use it daily during my fertile window.

    I know that my RE recommended that I drink even more water than usual.

    I am always a little wary of using "home" and herbal remedies, because it's kind of like taking a medication without a prescription, so unless it's recommended by my doctor, I steer clear of those... but that's just me.

  • Wow! Thanks so much! I was wondering about the green tea (which I do enjoy) but had no idea about the quantity. Will start on the green tea/more water regimen immediately!
