Quick Summary (Cervical Mucus): Fluid produced by the cervix that changes in consistency throughout the menstrual cycle. Fertile-quality mucus resembles raw egg whites and helps sperm survive and travel.
In Detail
Cervical mucus follows a predictable pattern: after your period, it's dry or sticky, then becomes creamy, then watery, and finally stretchy/egg-white (most fertile) around ovulation. After ovulation, it returns to thick and sticky. Tracking mucus is one of the most effective natural fertility indicators. Egg-white cervical mucus (EWCM) can keep sperm alive for up to 5 days. Dehydration, medications, and hormonal birth control can affect mucus quality.
