I have read somewhere that you can use actual egg whites when BDing in order to improve conception chances if you don't have much EWCM at your fertile time - is this true or just an old wives tale???
Julia it's true! I know it sounds a bit YUCK, but egg whites have the same consistency as the most fertile cervical fluid, therefore creating the perfect medium to transport sperm to it's destination. Its proberbly a bit messy, but if it works, who cares!
Thanks for the reply Rachael....my husband would probably think I was mad if I tried it....anyway - no eggs in fridge!!
Yucky indeed. But when you look at this... http://www.tryingtoconceive.com/eggwhites.htm It just doesn't seem terribly hygenic, does it. What if you got really hot and they cooked?!!
Hee hee you lot are mad! Personally I don't think sperm is all that nice either, so a bit of egg white wouldn't have bothered me that much....Fortunately we got there without it! - It took us 5 years, 3 miscarriages and one failed IVF though!
