Sorry again, I know I shouldn't be here

Just wanted to say, I've just heard that certain types of cough medicine are supposed to be good when you are ttc. They have to contain Guaifanisen and should give you more fertile CM. They say to take it 3 times a day from CD8 till ovulation.

I was just nosing around a forum and saw this so thought I would share

yeah i have heard about this, and heard it is supposed to help - guafenisen thins your bodies mucus, (so not just CM but mucus in your chest etc as well)

but i have also heard that this can have a negative effect on Cervical Mucus, and should be avoided... ??

I'd rather avoid drugs when ttc, what may be good now may be bad later.
