Confused!! ... the ingredient you need is what AG said .... but that should only be in a medicine for chesty coughs ... an 'expectorant' ... dry cough medicine isn't an expectorant and so doesn't normally have Guaifensin in it!? I'd check the label carefully if I were you ... make sure that is the only active ingredient .....

I used the same medicine Hypnorm.

Took it from around Day 9 of cycle and I just took it twice a day morning and late afternoon as it's awkward taking medicine at work with people around and no cough

Don't really know if it worked as I generally had a fair amount of CM anyway but I got a BFP that month.

The magic ingredient is supposed to thin your CM making it easier for the sperm to swim.
