    Antihistamines/Robitussin

    I have serious serious allergies and have to be on antihistames. I guess that's one of the reasons why I have 2 DDs since it sways pink right? It also makes charting with CM difficult so I'm using opk. I guess I have to use robitussin when I ttc in october. When should I start using this?

    Yes, antihistamines sway pink, is there any chance to stop them like through September and October?
    You should take Robitussin 5 days before O and of the day of O ( 6 days in total)

    I guess I'll have to stop them in september then but I wonder how I'll make it through the 2 months though. What about the corticosteriod nasal sprays like fluticasone. Do you think I can take them, do they sway?

    I used to take Benadryl all the time and now I'm just not taking any antihistamines or anything that will dry me up. I just don't want to chance it. I have drainage from a sinus infection right now and I'm like, well it's Robitussin or nothing!

    I do think fluticasone may be a boy friendly option for allergies! Steriods tend to raise testosterone. THANK YOU for thinking of it, you have helped a lot of people!!

    My son went onto fluticasone and as far as I'm concerned it's almost a wonder drug because it's basically cured him.

    Oh and if you NEED your antihistamines, by all means, you can still take them. The Robitussin will help as will drinking plenty of water.
