A member asked:

Took ovulation tests and got positive but haven't had ewcm...does that mean i did not ovulate?

Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Trust test: An ovulation test is a much more accurate way to determine if ovulation occurred than evaluating cervical mucus.
