Cold medicine and fertility?

Does sinus medicine dry up you cervical mucus? Should you take it if you are misreable, but know you will be ovulating soon?

Cold remedies do affect the cervical mucus. To conceive, you need for your CM to be plentiful, watery, and slippery (like egg white, so it's called EWCM). CM will become EWCM around ovulation, and will be thick and sticky the rest of the month. Many women have trouble conceiving because of poor CM quality at the time of ovulation. Drinking a lot of water will help if you have poor CM.

Pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) will dry up CM just like it dries up mucus in your sinuses. Not a good idea to use during ovulation if you are trying to conceive.

Guaifenesin (the ingredient people are talking about when they mention Robitussin for fertility) is an expectorant, in other words it loosens mucus and phlegm so you can cough it up. Guaifenesin will improve CM quality for the same reason, it makes it thinner and runnier.

If you take Guaifenesin to improve CM, *don't* go gulping down a bunch of Robitussin. a) There are no kinds of Robi that have only Guaifenesin as an active ingredient, b) Guaifenesin is not even in most kinds of Robi at all, and c) Some ingredients in some kind of Robi are associated with birth defects. Not to mention it tastes horrible and is expensive.

Instead, buy plain Guaifenesin tablets which are now available over the counter.

Hope that helps,
