No, it's not risk-free. Your cervix is still dilated, and getting .. a lot of EWCM every month. I am lately wondering why this has changed for me.

And i can't believe ANYONE would slag you off. If that's the case, there are some real sad acts out there hun!
It's crazy...here you are, trying your hardest to get pregnant..and then on Yahoo answers, you see 13 year olds posting questions about how they became pregnant, whether they should or should not have the baby, and how they're so scared because their parents are going to find out and the kicker is...they weren't even trying to get pregnant in the first place!
It's almost a joke, really.
Just as a little story, My husband and I tried to conceive for a while year. Last year around Thanksgiving time, it finally happened. I think it wasn't happening for a whole year because I was stressing so much over it. I kept thinking about the baby. I kept counting days, researching my ovulation charts, reading about all kinds of crazy methods to conceive a child. I had baby on the brain. Finally in November last year, I gave up. I had a move to think about. I had to pack things, clothes, furniture...had to get an apartment, start paying new bills with my husband, make a road trip to our new state..things were hectic and I forgot about baby-making, and somewhere around that time, it happened. I think when you are anticipating a child, your body isn't going to respond only because of how the stress hormones are high even though you don't know it. And this can even put your cycle off. It sucks, really. I have some really helpful sites for you though..you should check them out:

Good luck..I know it's so frustrating...but it will happen. Like I said, we tried for a year..now I am a mom to a beautiful baby who was born in August 2008.
It is possible. There are things you can do to help increase CM. Drink a lot of water all month. Use Pre-seed (the one you insert). Things like that. Google "increase CM naturally" and it should give you lots of ideas. :)
Cervical fluid is necessary for allowing the sperm to swim freely through the cervix. Some of us have low or no cervical fluid, so it is harder for the sperm to move and there may not be a friendly environment for the sperm to sustain themselves.
When a woman ovulates there should be an increase in cervical mucous (CM), as well as a change in the mucous texture, from â wetâ to a more pliable, stretchy, egg white like mucous. This is easily helped by using one of these 5 suggestions:
1. Drink green tea daily - There are no studies proving this, but I have read hundreds of women using green tea to increase CM with great success. Drink one cup a day from menstruation till ovulation.
2. Take Evening Primrose - Dose is 1500 - 3000 mg once daily. Take from your period till ovulation, than switch to flax seed oil. The dosage for increasing cervical mucous is initially 500mg, three times a day for a total of 1500mg per day. If you donâ t get results in your first cycle, increase your dosage to 3,000 mg a day in your next cycle. Evening Primrose Oil can cause uterine contractions in pregnancy, which is why you should not take it past ovulation (in case you get pregnant.)
3. Take Fertile CM - This is a supplement blend that helps to increase CM, increase libido and promote egg implantation. Take 3 capsules daily.
4. Use Pre-seed right before intercourse - Pre-seed is a sperm friendly lubricant that mimics cervical fluids and creates a sperm friendly PH. It comes in single use applicators you use right before intercourse.
5. Drink a lot of water through out the day - This may be all you need, drink more water. Regardless if you use any of the supplements to help, you must drink enough water for your body to be able to make cervical mucous
It really could be a big part of it. Sadly, Clomid definitely does not help the lack of EWCM either. It can add to the problem. Although, you can get pregnant with out EWCM. And, it could be that you do have it, and it's just tucked up in the cevix and hasn't flowed out. You can get pregnant as long as you have some wetness. Stick or creamy CM is not good, as the sperm become tangled and trapped in it and are unable to swim. You could try preseed. It's a sperm friendly lubricant. Look on preseed.com. Also, there's a spin off of it sold at Pick N Save, CVS, and Wal-Mart called preconceive plus. I have also heard Evening Primrose Oil can help increase CM, but it doesn't work for every woman. Here's some info:
1,000 IU per day should be taken
only from Cycle Day 1 to Ovulation.
Do not take EPO after ovulation because
EPO causes uterine contractions
which may interfere with implantation.
EPO is a good source of
Essential Fatty Acids "EFA".
All living cells need fatty acids
for rebuilding and producing new cells.
EFAs are used by the body to produce
substances that send messages.
These messages trigger the important
events that need to occur each cycle!
Those important events? Hormones.
You can also take Robituusin to help thin out and liquify the CM you already have. More info on the link below. I don't know how you feel about this and I sounds disgusting, but you can also use real egg whites. Just beware of the slight risk of salmonella.
Good luck to you, and lots of baby dust :)
