Vaginal PH.. ttc..

[kristenann]

Basically i got this idea of seeing some gender swaying group online who mention to take a PH test of your cm to see what level you are at before dtd.. well i have wondered if this would be a good indicator of if in fertile period or not because as you become more fertile your ph becomes alkaline..
Long story short.. before i got a postivie opk my ph was 5 so very acidic.. i got a positive opk yesterday and a stronger postive today (darker line) my ph is 5.5 so still acidic.. i am now worried that my cm being so acidic is reason why i have not yet conceived? Any opinions?

I don't know much about this but I have heard your diet is mega important. To lower acidity levels in the body cut out sugar, eat lots of freah veg, put apple cider vinegar in stuff (like salad dressing), maybe get off coffee. https://www.healthline.com/health/acid-foods-to-avoid


I don't know if it would help to use preseed or something?

Hi thanks for help. I have preseed. I just wondered generally what PH other people had around ovulation.. worried way my PH is so high i wont ever conceive is 5/5.5 too acidic?

I've not heard of anyone checking. Do you have EWCM? To help that, stay hydrated, have vitamin C, and I find white fish helps a lot.



Also get off the processed foods.


I've never checked my pH.
