Why is it that I am experiencing an increase in cervical mucus three weeks after taking clomid CD 5-9?

Question

This is my first cycle of clomid and was expecting the loss of cm which did happen during the first two weeks after cycle day 5-9 but now the third week I am always wet.I wear panty liners to keep dry but for the past week I am constantly secreting cm.It has no foul smell and the consistancy is of sugar and water you know it is watering but it still has a sticky feel to it.I know it's a little to much information but I want to know if this was expected while on clomid or should I keep my appointment to go to my doctor on Monday.

Answer 1

Yes, this is normal. Estrogen is mainly responsible for the fertile quality cervical mucus so if you have high estrogen, or are estrogen dominant, then it is very normal to see patches of EWCM before and after O.

"EWCM comes from an estrogen increase. That usually happens several days prior to ovulation. But it also happens about a week after ovulation. So seeing EWCM again at that time is not unusual. "-- http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/a...

"Once ovulation has occurred, the cervical fluid dries up, and the vagina remains dry until the next cycle. However, many women do experience periods of "unexplained" EWCM both before and after ovulation."-- http://www.babysnark.com/ttc-fertility/t...

Answer 2

I took clomid on days 5-9 and I ovulated on cd 12.
