Pressed for lack of ewcm

Has anyone who doesn't really get ewcm - at least not at the right time had any luck using pre-seed?

I'm wondering if it'll help me, some months I have none or little, some months I'll have loads but either a week before ovulation, sometimes after, but usually not around ovulation. I know my ovulation date is correct from opks, bbt, and ovulation pain.
The month I conceived my dc I had loads - though about 5 days before ovulation but sperm can survive that long so it might have been what helped. But I'm also wondering if I'm thinking too much into it and would be just wasting my money, so just looking for any success stories from people with the same issue?

I never saw any ewcm whilst TTC, despite frequent checking. Conceived twice so can't be that problematic!

I don’t get EWCM either and I’ve had four pregnancies! I do feel more “wet” before ovulation but it’s definitely not the texture of EW.

I don't think I get much EWCM but I've got a son so must be enough! I've read that grapefruit juice and lots of water can help increase EWCM naturally and also small, safe amounts of cough syrup that contain guaifenesin can loosen cervical mucus so it's more EWCM like and easier for the sperm to move through BUT I'm not a medical professional so I'd take those with a pinch of salt!

I don’t seem to get much EWCM either or it can be a bit hit and miss and have been worrying about this today. I know I’ve ovulated from OPKs and BBT.

I tried Preseed last month and for me it only made it more pleasurable on times when I didn’t really feel like dtd! It didn’t result in pregnancy even though I’d read some good reviews about it.

I haven’t bothered using it again this month.

Hey,

My wife conceived using Pre-Seed, worked well for us.
Hope it works for you too

Preseed worked for me twice!

We used pressed for the first time trying baby2 and got pregnant that month. First took 9 months. Not sure if linked but worth a shot!
