Green Tea
Does it really help with CM? I'm not a big fan of the taste so I don't want to be forcing myself to drink it if it doesn't really work.
TIA!

Re: Green Tea
I believe there are some sources that say it does but quite honestly I don't think its any better than other more popular methods. I've actually read in some places that too much greent tea is not good so who knows. At one point I was drinking a chai green tea every morning and I'd be lying if I said I noticed any change in CM. However, I have tried grapefruit juice and that did seem to make a difference. I really think that although these different methods have some proven ability to help, every womens body is different and therefore responds differently.

Re: Green Tea
It helped me. I replaced my morning coffee with a cup of green tea, and it really helped with EWCM. It also dehydrated me much less than coffee. I also had a cup of grapefruit juice each morning. If you don't like plain green tea, it comes in flavors (mint, orange, jasmine) or you can sweeten it with sugar or honey.
Any of those studies about green tea being "bad" were tested with the equalivalent of 6 cups a day. Unless you're chugging gallons of the stuff, it's fine.

Re: Green Tea
Don't forget your water intake as well. I drink Green Tea every morning out of habbit. I do that in conjunction with half a grapefruit and plenty of water a day. It helped for me.

Re: Green Tea
I drink green tea anyway and recently found out it supposedly increases CM...I wonder if it's actually true.
