Supplements I have tried so far - For improving EWCM

Being an impatient person, I was eager to research and try supplements that may help my cycle regulate itself. In addition to having irregular cycles, I also don't have any egg white cervical mucus, so I added that symptom to my list to research.

Evening Primrose Oil
I was researching supplements that can help increase fertile cervical mucus, and EPO was something that came up again and again. EPO is derived from the seeds of the plant, and is high in essential fatty acids and vitamin E. In addition to being used for fertile cervical mucus, women also use it to ease PMS/menopausal symptoms.

A little bit about me...


DH and I have known each other since we were 16. While it took us seven years before we started dating, it was another 7 years until we were married. I always believed in waiting until marriage before having children, as such, I started taking birth control pills at 18, and didn't stop until a few months before we were married. I was on birth control pills for a total of 12 years.

Why am I here?

I've created this blog as a way to write about our journey in trying to conceive our first baby. We started trying to conceive in July 2013, and it has been about nine months as of this writing. While I know this is by no means a long time compared to other couples, I just have a gut feeling this may be a long journey.
I have done a lot of reading since we began our journey. I hope I can share some of the knowledge I've acquired.
