CERVIX MUCUS- OVULATION BOOST
๐There are some glands that are found in the cervix that produce mucus.
๐ This mucus is usually thick and doesn't allow s***m and organisms that cause infections to go through the cervix and get into the womb.
๐ The thickness and amount of mucus produced changes throughout the menstrual cycle. Changes go hand in hand with hormonal changes in the body.
๐ Cervical mucus can help you tell when ovulation is taking place. You can track your mucus to help you get pregnant or avoid pregnancy. This is what we call fertility awareness or cervical monitoring. โAlways have a back up plan if you're not planning on getting pregnant.
๐ During me**es, you are very likely not to notice mucus changes because of the blood.
๐ After your me**es, you might not notice any mucus or discharge ( these are your dry days )
๐ Your body produces cervical mucus before ovulation occurs. This mucus may be yellow, white, or cloudy and may feel gluey or stretchy in consistency.
๐ At mid cycle ( menstrual cycle), the levels of estrogen ( female hormone ) goes up. This increase in estrogen changes the quality of the cervical mucus. The mucus is usually more clear, stretchy, watery, and slippery . It looks like egg white. The mucus with this texture and pH serve as protection for s***m. You're most fertile at this point.
๐ The cervical mucus is more salty as well during this period.
๐ After you ovulate, your mucus returns to its thick , glue-like nature and va**nal discharge reduces.
๐ When your partner ej******es into your va**na, the cervical mucus that has been changed by estrogen during midcycle separates the s***m from from what is not s***m.
๐ Your cervical mucus traps and is able to hold the s***m that it has picked up for up to 72 hrs to increase your chances of pregnancy.
It releases it gradually.
๐ Your cervix doesn't hold the s***m it doesn't need. You will definitely have some s***m flowing out of your va**na after s*x.
