Lots of boy mom's here drank it and from personal experience it makes a crazy amount of ewcm. I never saw a post saying don't drink

I drank about 1-3 cups a day when TTC my boys, although at the time I didn't know it favored TTC a boy only that it helped with EWCM, which it did.

Green tea inhibit folic acid uptake by about 40% in cell cultures, so the researchers in the study recommended to drink it between meals if you're trying to become pregnant. When I drank it I drank it in the afternoons, just to be safe (I take my vitamins in the morning). But if you take really high doses of folic acid this shouldn't matter of course. I just chose not to (850 mcg a day), and was careful with the green tea instead (I didn't do BS or any of the boy drinks).

Thanks all!
Ok I don't ttc just yet...thinking to start in Oct. but if I would on full moon before Oct. I do it . So I kinda started the diet and sups. ( now if I could find some moon space calendar would be great and try to find my O every month
)
Anyway I got a lot's of EWCM this month! Maybe from the green tea...( also taking some sups)
It is ok for DH too??
All we drink before is diet pepsi ( really like all day ) so no we must find other drink. He need to drink a lot at work so have to come up with something...
We have club soda , V8 and other juice...but don't want lots of sugar and juice has sugar right? +1

Green tea is absolutely fine for DH, just be careful with the caffeine, as it can build up.
