Mucinex help

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Good morning ladies!  Today I start taking Mucinex for cycle #6.

I read on here and other places to take 200mg of Mucinex 3x per day.  I could only find Mucinex with pills that had 400mg or 600mg.  The 600mg pills said not to cut the pills in half, but the 400mg (store brand with same active ingredient) ones said you could.  Cutting them in half is a pain in the ass though.  Sooooo.... do you think it will still work if I just take one 400mg pill per day?  Time will tell, but I thought maybe you ladies had run into the same issue...

TIA

    I took the pills with 600mg 2x a day for a few days. It worked for me!

    I started out taking it this month, but FF said I O'd really early so I quit.  By the time I realized FF was wrong it was too late.  I was going to follow the directions on the box.

    I don't even recall how many mg it was that I took, as I had a head cold and just took the plain mucinex (which I think is what is recommended) and was taking B6 and drinking green tea this past cycle and it must have worked for me!!!

    Thx everyone!  I will stick to my one 400mg pill per day for now and see what happens.  I get wicked bad medicine head when I take meds and so I would rather stick to the low dose.  I just took my first pill and my head already feels fuzzy.  :(

    I can't take the liquid stuff 'cause it tastes bad and I am a baby.  lol

    Is mucinex/robitussin for thinning or thickening CM? Thanks!

    Thinning... It will thin it out and make it more of the consistency that is considered "fertile".  You can find a lot of info on it via Google.

    TMI coming: I have an avg 3 days of EWCM and one or two days is usually 6 or more inches long. Do you think I am a candidate for thinning it out? Is this creating a sperm barrier?
