A member asked:
Had sex while on the birth control pill, 2 days later i got clear stretchy mucus like during ovulation. can this occur on the pill without ovulating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The pill works to suppress ovulation, modulate the lining of the inside and thicken the cervical mucous. Some women will still occasionally ovulate on the pill. This is probably what happened to explain the clear, stretchy cervical discharge.
