Think I done it wrong

[love being a mummy]

I was taking L-arg ( 2 caps per day) and it was making me dry.
I was also taking EPO ( 1 cap per day) but I was reading the EPO bottle and it says take 2-3 caps per day.

Is that why the L-arg was making me dry cause I wasn't taking enough EPO?

No it wouldn't be that, l'arg is just reknowned around here for drying us out that is why many of us stopped it :)

I agree, I don't think so, These supplements didn't do any good for me, they messed up my cycle and no ewcm at all.

I didn't use L'arg myself but did notice that over the months my cm went to zero aswell, I was using the flaxseed. But I did manage to get my little boy even with the zero, luckily what was there must have been the right quality:agree: I think I've heard best results with the epo just taken for a few months??

ELP so you had little ewcm?????

ELP so you had little ewcm?????I had ZERO ewcm!! Well nothing readily noticable on the outside, but with a bit of rough wiping when +opk showed up there was the tiniest of bits. But, the quality inside must have been good, and as I bd at the initial change from cm to creamy 2 days before, then half of the swimmers journey had been done already, so the good cm was only needed in the upper part, thank goodness!

Just to echo what everyone else has already said, we have had nothing but trouble with the l-arg and also the flaxseed, in addition to the tribuilous terrestris. People's ovulation was getting spotty and their CM was drying up and neither of those things are good for blue. I think we are getting the best, most consistent results with JUST fish oil and EPO. Give the l-arg to your DH, he can take it.

Rereading this thread I see I need to update it but here is a quick list of herbs:

I do have hope then as I struggle with ewcm!

the l-arg really stuffed up my EWCM.

I usually have 2-3 days of it but this cycle I had it for about an hour.
DH said I felt more "in the mood" and seemed happier since I have started the L-arg.
But I think I will stop it and just take the prenatals.

Good idea, you really do not want to compromise if you have good ewcm anyway!

I had really good luck with Fertile CM and EPO.

Good point! It has worked for some people, so if it works for you, that's great!!
