For some women, Clomid (fertility drug) makes the cervical fluid dry up, which means the sperm can't travel where they need to go, even if the woman's ovulating.
Robitussin thins mucous, including cervical mucous.
So that's why so many of us take it while TTC.

Do NOT buy "Robitussin DM or CF" - only the plain kind. You can buy the generic equivalent too, just make sure the only active or primary ingredient is guaifenesin.
