There are so many!
drinking grapefruit juice, drinking green tea, taking fish oil, try EPO, or fertileCM has worked for some, l'arginine is another one, also taking mucinex/robitussin in the days before O. You'll just need to try them out to see what works for you! Some of them can mess with your cycle though so you'll need to decide what you're willing to try and how much time you have to experiment before your actual attempt at getting pg.

ITA with begonia. Just wanted to add, supps that ~may~ mess with your cycle are EPO , FertileCM and l-arginine.

Also, just by eating a good diet with healthy fats and a lot of colorful fruits and vegetables, you do a lot towards improving your CM.
Having as many orgasms as you can in the days leading up to O, will help produce a lot of good stuff as well! It's not technically cervical mucus but it acts the same.

Hmmm...now another person says they started green tea and are having less CM?? Try going without the green tea and see if it gets better and then let us know.

I would say go with fish oil and/or cod liver oil and also add plenty of good fats into your diet. If you're doing any dairy make it full fat. Coconut oil, bacon drippings, olive oil, etc. are good fats to have. Skin on your chicken, marbled beef, etc. I found adding fats and also the fish oil supps in really made a difference in my cm.

I also agree with skrimpy - good healthy fats (both unsaturated and saturated, but stay away from the trans-fats) really help you TTC a baby boy!

Try fertile cm pills, they've worked for me in about a week and produced the biggest glob of ewcm i've ever had!

I was wondering about this...what if some1 just can't do it? It's suppose to raise T and help with all but I just can't do it!
Maybe 1 a day but even that is to much to ask from me. So what then no high T for me and such?:sad:

Flava, would you consider a little help? I have a particular vibrator (bought at an Anne Summers party many moons ago!) which will work in around 30 seconds flat (where's the emarrassed icon?!). I couldn't do it in front of DH but if you're relaxed and alone perhaps it would help.
To add to this theory, I had what I was certain was EWCM yesterday, despite only being on day 9 of my cycle and not ovulating until cd19 last month. I'm now wondering if it was actually because DH and I dtd the night before and I had the big O. If so, I'm quite astounded that it could have such an effect!
Sorry for barging in to this thread with so much personal information!

I TOTALLY agree with Zanacal there. Get you a vibrator, Flava! Ain't no shame in that game, especially if you have a hard time having a big O. I can't do it in front of my DH either (I am too shy). In fact, as many of you have seen in another thread, I will insert preseed or ew and have a big O with a vibrator on the toilet so I have some up there for sure and the excess is out, and my natural high ewcm comes out to play also. I realize the toilet is a crazy place for sexy time, but like Zan said, you can go from 0-60 in no time with those suckers! Maybe you could sneak away for a few minutes and use it before O time. Heck, say it's for boy swaying!

Flava, I only O every other day AT THE MOST and usually a lot lot lot less! In fact DH gets mad at me because I won't even try to O two days in a row. With DS 1 I hadn't Oed in forever and I didn't O when he was conceived either. You do not need to O that much or anywhere near that much, it's just that is might help. Your T can be plenty high even without Oing that much.

It was ~prob~ because of the big O! It really can help. Thank you so much for sharing, this info is gold!!

Ok this is good because I just can't do it. And in 30 sec? wth how? I did have a vibrator before but that thing didn't help me.I throw it out in the garbage lol. Ok it was vibrating and so what? Just because something is buzzing in my hand Im not gonna O from it.I would be also scared that the kids find it.:omg:
I have no idea about this stuff so maybe there are different type what works better or idk...:think:
If I try to have O alone it takesforevertodoit! So I hate it and better don't even try.

Oh yeah and to do this every day and not even once but more??? NO WAY NO HOW!

It can even help just to get aroused and not O, because your body still produces the same lubricating fluid. Please don't stress over this, it's not a make or break thing!
Plenty of baby boys were conceived back in the day when "proper" ladies were never supposed to O! ;)

It may not have been down to this afterall as I just got an unexpectedly early +OPK on CD12 - perhaps a bit of both!
