Cough Syrup - when to take?

When do you all start taking cough syrup - every day from period to O or do you start just a few days before you're due to O.

thanks

Plain Robitussen has an ingredient in it called Guaifenesin. When you have a cough, you take it to loosen up the mucus in your lungs - it has the same effect on all of your mucus membranes, so it will thin out the cervical mucus you already have (but won't give you more than your body already produces!!) to make it more sperm friendly. But you have to make sure it's just plain because if it has antihistamines in it, it dries up your membranes instead.
