Feeling frustrated

[Renk]

Any suggestions on how to get rid of this stubborn cough? M on ivf meds and not sure what to take to eliminate this cough. Trying herbal stuff like ginger tea

Have you tried steaming with vicks? I had a cough not long ago too, and i found steaming helped a great deal. But mine started off as really dry cough. I used to have honey too x

I tried honey but now will try Vicks steaming as well. Thanks sweet. Yeah it started with dry cough but now have sputum

[Lilac12 in reply to Renk]

It's good you have sputum because it means it's running its course. Mine developed in the same way. I also ended up having a throat infection twice while on injections. If you're not already, take vitamin c daily to boost your immune system and to aid recovery x

Will certainly take vit c now. I am on few other vitamins like elevit, vit B,D and E

[Lilac12 in reply to Renk]

Everytime i feel under the weather i take a vitamin c in the morning and night until i'm feeling better. Always does the trick. Best of luck with your cycle x

Steam your face, taking deep breathes in, if you feel comfortable using lavender or tea tree pop in a few drops to the hot water before you steam. I find taking Berocca good. The other thing I often do is make a hot drink by boiling a chopped up & squeezed lemon, fresh ginger and fresh orange juice together. Add honey to sweeten if you like. Good luck & I hope you feel better soon Xx

Thanks sweet. Will try that. I really hope to get fully recovered before transfer.

I got a little humidifier to have on over night when I had a cough last winter. You can put menthol drops in it too but not after embryo transfer.

Will try that thanks sweet
