Who drinks green tea?

And why? Does it help semen too?

Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

Re: Who drinks green tea?

  • I started drinking it this cycle.  It's supposed to help with EWCM but I guess it's too early for me to tell a difference.  I'm CD 12 and I'm not noticing an increase.  I'm not sure if it works on men....would be good to know.  I have heard that when you are in the 2 week wait you should not drink it.  Anyone know if that is true?

  • I drink green tea, just mostly because I like it.

     You're supposed to avoid it in the 2WW because it messes with cell division.  However, I'm pretty sure you'd have to be drinking A LOT of green tea for it to have any kind of effect.

    One cup of tea isn't going to make a difference.  Enjoy!

  • Oh By Golly! I have been drinking up on the green tea!! I just love it and find it relaxing! Good thing for this board! You guys are a life saver!
  • I drank it (a few cups each day) on my 2nd Clomid cycle b/c I do get the decreased CM side effect from Clomid.  I did not notice any changes.
