I don't recommend putting ANY of those in your vagina. They barely sway if at all and severely inhibit conception. Time on the LE diet & changing your lifestyle, 60+ min daily cardio and just ONE BD attempt within the 3-4 days up to and including O are the strongest swy tactics. But especially diet above all.

My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

Thank you for the reply! I get really excited that that ONE THING is the answer, but I'm learning now that I'll drive myself crazy/limit conception at all by adding everything to my sway. I am a thin person and already do daily cardio. I have a few supplements I was considering: Cranberry, Cinnamon, Folic Acid and then baby asprin and antihistamine. Should I drop the first two? I tested PH after dtd last night..mix of cm and sperm and it was very high..does PH not really matter anymore? I think I have been reading old sway tactics! I really appreciate the help!

Hi and welcome!
I can assure you it's NEVER one thing.
Most people do want to start off doing something, be it jelly or douche. I think Jellies are safer and more sanitary but at the same time, the data has shown that they do nothing to help the sway. Douches have not been used by enough people for me to be able to say if they really work or not, and even if they do, the downsides of them are SOO major that it is probably not worth it.
Diet longer htan 12 weeks (plus fiber and alcohol), exercise, one attempt, LR for DH and Clomid or Femara if you can get some are the most consistent and best tactics we have.!!! Questions??Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Don't do both cran and baby aspirin. Neither got stellar results and both carry some pretty big risks, and most of us aren't using them any more, and never ever use both. You can give cran to your hubby if you want to.
Antihistamine I do think sways pink but it hasn't been a heavy hitter in our results. IF you don't get pg right away, that should be the next thing to drop.
Be sure you don't go overboard with diet, eat enough cals to prevent excess weight loss. Since you are thin, I would NOT recommend the cinnamon for you, no way, no how (as per our discussion in other thread where I did not know you were thin) YOu don't need it.
pH debunked here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...ph-pickle.html Seriously, our numbers have gone UP since we started moving away from the cran/aspirin/RepHresh/Acijel/Sylk business. Up considerably!!!! Questions??Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Thank you so much Atomic for all your feedback! Like I said, I think I was reading a lot of really old forum threads! I think I will stop all supps and concentrate on diet, exercise and perhaps an antihistamine if I am noticing a lot of ewcm around O. What about a fibre supp? I do eat a pretty "boy" diet.. but have been trying to cut way back. Can fiber help any?

Yes fiber has gotten good results. I tend to lump that in with diet in my brain, sorry.

Time on the diet should dry up the EWCM, it sure did for me.
