Improved CM with Evening Primrose Oil
| Thu, 11-27-2008 - 4:12pm |
I've been taking some extra vitamins this cycle.
One of them is Evening Primrose Oil (and also vit E), which are supposed to improve your CM.
I have to say that I have had a lot more EWCM this cycle (I usually only have a tiny bit) and today my EWCM was much thicker than normal.
Today is was like the thicker bit out of actual egg white.
I'm hoping that this is a good sign.

Hopin it is a good sign for you as well. I am just waiting cuz this is day one no AF and im hopin its going to lead to a BFP todays HPT turned BFN but I am not out yet
Tons of baby dust and rasberries for you keep us posted on Evening of primrose oil I may try it
Make an ovulation ticker
I tried EPO for the first time this cycle as well and noticed amazing improvments. I O'd 3 days earlier then normal (CD17 not CD20), had alot more CM, and I felt GREAT! I am off EPO now for the 2nd half of my cycle and wishing I were still able to take it! Lets hope it gives us BFP's!
Thanks for your replies girls.
I am not sure when I O'd bc I decided not to use OPK's this cycle (and I only have 4 left anyway) I think I may have O'd slightly later and possibly have a slow rise in temps.
I'm now taking Flax seed oil instead of EPO for the 2nd half of my cycle. (thought I'd better swap on CD14 as I usually O on CD 14 or 15).
Calender Gal - I hope your BFN was just too early.
Baby Dust to everyone.

My temp went up this morning, so I think I O'd on CD16 which was the day I had thicker EWCM. (does that sound right?)
That would mean my O days have been CD14, then CD15, and now CD16.
I need one for temp rise to get CH's on FF.
The heating is on 'constant' rather than 'timer' from last night bc it's so cold, but it's always on when I wake up anyway, and DH said he isn't too hot, he's just normal.
I have what feels like O pains now, this sounds wierd, but it kind of feels like someone is pulling on my fallopian tubes and stretching them inwards :)
Also a couple of days ago I felt twinges for the first time in the area of my left ovary, and also twinges in my right ovary. (I normally only feel the right side).
