Inconsistent EWCM

Ive been TTC for a year and Ive always had a suspicion my problem lies with my CM. Most months I see EWCM just once on one day. I had a chemical pregnancy last year, but that month where I did conceive, I noticed EWCM was much more plentiful. Last month I had three days of it, was sure this was going to be my month but unfortunately not. Now I’m due to ovulate tomorrow and I’ve really seen no EWCM yet. Does anyone else have this wild fluctuation? And if so have you still had success.

Yes I drink lots of water and even eat certain foods and supplements that are supposed to improve quality of CM

Yeah I am the same. Sorry about your loss.
I had loads of EWCM for just one day a couple of days ago but OPKs were high but didn’t peak. It’s so hard to know what’s going on isn’t it.

I wouldn’t worry about OPK tests. You can easily miss your peak, once you see it rising high I’d feel confident! That’s what my GP has told me in the past. Once you see EWCM go for it! I’m just so confused as to why one month I have three days of it and the next month I have nothing. I 100% know I’m ovulating because I track my BBT and my bloods also support it.

I have literally just started a thread about this I didn't see yours, two ladies have said they suffered the same and took new vitamins and seen a massive difference.
One took evening primrose oil and red clover up until peak and said she noticed a massive difference.
The only thing I do to help sperm swim is preseed but it's been 7 months on it (over 1 years trying) and never had a BFP.

Yeah I’ve tried preseed too and conceive plus but they’ve not worked for me. I’m taking evening primrose oil and dandelion root (supposed to be good for water retention?) but I can’t say I’ve noticed a big difference. I also drink grapefruit juice in the two weeks up to ovulation which is supposed to help. I can’t point to anything that really helped the two months I’ve had loads of EWCM. I often wonder if it’s what causing us to have no success but maybe it’s not the issue. I’ve never heard of Red Clover, could give it a try! Though the amount of supplements I’m already taking is ridiculous
