A member asked:
Does a person ovulate before or after ewcm dries?? i have had ewcm since day 9 and now i am on day 11. have i already ovulated or not yet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Thin clear stringy watery mucus is seen for few days before and continues till ovulation has occurred. Once your egg has released, the mucus becomes thick in about 24 hours.
