No EWCM?

Has anyone had this problem?
This is my 2nd month charting and I still haven't seen the Fertile EW CM...
Last month I had a surge on the OPK that lasted 1 day- the next day my temps spiked....
This month, I'm on CD 23 and have been taking OPKs since CD 14 and NOTHING Chat Icon Last month I had the OPK surge on CD 19...
Anyone have any ideas on how to increase EW CM? I've read about taking Mucinex and Robbitussen- but does any of that really work?

I have the same issue - I haven't noticed EWCM either. But this is my first month trying, so I'm trying to be patient.

Re: No EWCM?

The older we get, the less we notice the EW CM (less time to get fertile, too). Regardless, we pretty much always do produce the EW CM, but it's I think it's possible that it isn't coming down for you to examine, so you need to do Kegel exercises - they're extremely helpful, and will make it easier to see the EW CM. Also, doing #2 (I know, nasty), will bring the EW down, since the act uses those same muscles.

Believe me, I check when I do #2 and nothing...

Re: No EWCM?

I am fortunate enough that I have gotten EWCM in the past .. But I know its not uncommon for a lot of ladies to not have enough, which is why PreSeed is often recommended (this is from the TCOYF book)

Its a safe lubricant that is sperm-friendly and acts as EWCM in the event that you do not produce enough on your own

Link: Pre-Seed

ALSO, I have read that drinking tomato/vitamin juices similar to "V8"... eating carrots and drinking LOTS of fluids in general is a natural way to increase EWCM. I believe someone recommened a brank of tomato/vegetable juice sold at Trader Joe's that was highly recommended

And yes, I have read on the ovusoft message boards that Robitussun also works to increase EWCM.


Good luck!
