Gauifenisen (the drug in mucinex) helps move mucus and "down there" is also lined with mucus. I would think it is probably just moving out old gunk that the body hasn't done a good job with, or something like that -- making things move there as well as in your sinuses and lungs. A woman who is a CF carrier told me she took gauifenisen for her sinuses when she had her period and her problems with her period suddenly got a whole lot better. So while I can't say taking gauifenisen ever did anything like that to me, this isn't the first time I have heard someone mention a connection between female stuff and this drug. Oh, I have also heard from more than one person that it sometimes helps with female infertility, especially in women with CF, because of it's impact on the mucus in that area.
