Question: Dr. Oakley, I heard on TikTok that Mucinex can help you get pregnant. Is that true? Let's start at the beginning: Mucinex is designed to treat cold and flu symptoms, and there's nothing in the packaging or directions that says you should take this to help you get pregnant. Medications like Mucinex, which contain the active ingredient guaifenesin, thin the mucus throughout your body. One theory, though it is unproven, is that it could thin the mucus in the cervix, making it easier for sperm to pass through more easily. If you are taking these medications, be sure to discuss their potential impact on birth control and fertility with your provider. In this episode, Dr. Oakley & Holly will chat about the viral media question, “Does Mucinex increase your chances of getting pregnant?” Thank you for listening.
