Sorry for the TMI question!
I was just wondering if anyone knows!
I am on CD40 after coming off BC. My normal cycles are 30 days - I have been temping and checking CM and do not believe I have ovulated since coming off them.
I am therefore waiting for ovulation. Last night, me and OH DTD, and then went to sleep. I did not check my CM this morning. For the last few days, it has been slightly increased in volume, and sticky.
Just now (lunch time) I checked my CM, and it appears to be clear and stretchy, what I believe to be EWCM. My cervix is hard and closed.
My question is, could this instead of EWCM be leftover semen? How long does it take to break down in the vagina? I tried smelling it (gross I know but semen does have a distinctive smell) and it didn't smell of anything at all.
If it IS EWCM, how many days of EWCM do you have before you ovulate, or does it vary between women? I will do an OPK later, just to see what it says.
Advice appreciated - thanks!
