Clear mucous: During the time of ovulation, the cervical mucous changes nature in order to allow sperm entry into the uterine cavity. The cervical mucous becomes thin, clear and stretchy.

Question 4

if i already had sperm inside me before i ovulated and i conceived would it look like i ovulated, with stretchy discharge and such?

Accepted Answer

Usually not: Usually after ovulation the stretchy discharge dries up.  If you conceived, there are usually no signs for at least 2 weeks after conception.  After that, discharge may increase if you're pregnant.

Question 5

No: Brown discharge is usually old blood mixed with mucus.  It can appear for many different reasons.  Ovulation isn't a common reason for its appearance so it doesn't mean you ovulated.  Best wishes!

Question 6

i have dark brown discharge and just yesterday i bled like half a teaspoon probably and my ovulation was two days ago.

Accepted Answer

Mid cycle spotting: Sounds like you had some midcycle spotting which is relatively common and may or may not happen again.  I would check a pregnancy test if you are sexually active though.

Question 7

is discharge sign of ovulation ?

Accepted Answer

Ovulation?: As ovulation approaches, your cervical mucus changes in amount and consistency. By paying careful attention to the change, you can predict your most fertile days.

When you're not ovulating, cervical mucus may appear sticky, creamy, or may be entirely absent.

As ovulation approaches, cervical mucus becomes more abundant, takes on a watery to raw-egg-white-like consistency, and stretches up to an inch or more between your fingers.

Question 8

when will ovulation discharge stop?

Accepted Answer

A few days: Ovulation discharge occurs due to the egg's secretion of estrogen, which makes the cervical discharge more clear and watery. This type of discharge makes it easy for sperm to get through. Once your egg has been released and after it's too late to be fertilized, the discharge changes and so the clear watery discharge during ovulation only lasts a few days (3-5 days) during the fertile window.

Question 9

does lots of discharge mean your ovulating?

Accepted Answer

Possible: There is usually an increase in the the amount of vaginal discharge and a decrease in viscosity (thinner consistency) at the time of ovulation.  That is normal and is likely to increase fertility.

Question 10

what causes discharge just before ovulation?

Accepted Answer

Estrogen: Estrogen is produced by the growing follicle in the ovary.  Estrogen moves through the bloodstream and causes the cells of the uterine lining to grow and cervical mucus to be produced.  The mucus helps sperm to find the way into the uterus from the vagina.  After ovulation Progesterone is produced by the ovary that makes the mucus thicker and sperm can no longer get in.
