What is Cervical Mucus?

Cervical mucus, produced by the cervix, undergoes consistent changes throughout the menstrual cycle under the influence of estrogen and progesterone. These changes play a pivotal role in fertility and conception.

Key Phases & Significance in Fertility Charting:

🌸 Menstrual Phase: Typically, this phase sees little to no cervical mucus.

🌸 Pre-Ovulatory Phase: As estrogen levels rise, you'll notice an increase in clear, stretchy, and slippery mucus, often likened to raw egg whites. This type of mucus is fertile and indicates the approaching fertile window.

🌸 Ovulation Phase: Peak fertility is usually marked by the highest quantity of clear, stretchy mucus.

🌸 Post-Ovulatory Phase: After ovulation, progesterone causes the mucus to become thicker and stickier, creating a less hospitable environment for sperm.

In Fertility Charting: Observing and charting these changes in cervical mucus can help:

Predict the fertile window more accurately.

Complement other fertility tracking methods like BBT.

Understand potential hormonal imbalances or issues affecting fertility.
