Were you successful? And, ummm, what did you do about your sheets? Use a towel? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1417474 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 10:51:16 +0000 blackbird 1417474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know people who have taken medicine for it, but I don't remember doing that! I just remember using lots and lots of olive oil (what our dr suggested over pre-seed, as it's closer to what your body actually makes). So that's what we used! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1417229 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 09:51:05 +0000 ineebee 1417229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started to have problems with CM during the last few cycles with Clomid, and the wonderful nurse at my RE's office told me that Pre-Seed is great and that was that. Good luck to you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1416969 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 08:18:43 +0000 MrsTal 1416969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone! It seems like it really varies from person to person. I think I may have some mucinex on hand just in case. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1416816 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 06:06:54 +0000 ladybee 1416816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took robitussin and used preseed! I noticed a huge issue on clomid with me drying up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1416773 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 02:34:53 +0000 sarac 1416773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have any problem with cm while on clomid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1416157 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:30:41 +0000 FaithFertility 1416157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did IUI so I never worried about it too much, I have heard about Mucinex or Some type of cough syrup!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1416093 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:01:57 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 1416093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTal: Exercise also helps me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1415982 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 18:02:04 +0000 Happygal 1415982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTal: I found that my CM was fine on Clomid! I hope that's the case for you as well. I think drinking lots of water is a good thing, along with the tricks others have shared with you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1415251 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 15:21:49 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 1415251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTal: Evening Primrose Oil tablets worked GREAT for me. You can find them at any store.. I got mine at Trader Joes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1415246 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 15:21:02 +0000 Shutterbug 1415246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did pre-seed, but I sort of hate it, so once we switched to IUI (+Clomid) I stopped, since we were bypassing my cervix </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1415232 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 15:18:17 +0000 bhbee 1415232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done mucinex some cycles (this is #7 on clomid for me) and not others and I'm not sure it made much difference, because the cycle I noted very little CM was the one that was a success.</p> <p>that said, I don't think it will hurt to do the mucinex thing, it's just a pain to remember to take it (for me at least). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1413622 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 09:24:00 +0000 Tidybee 1413622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used pre-seed but I also took mucinex that cycle because I had a bad cold and ended up getting pregnant! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/those-that-took-clomid#post-1413618 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 09:21:07 +0000 MrsTal 1413618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you take or do anything to increase cm? I've heard and read that clomid dries you out so I'm wondering if I should try mucinex, robitussin, or some other trick to increase cm. Fwiw, we already use pre-seed, but I wasn't sure if that would be enough. </p>
