A member asked:

What it means when my cervical mucus was white and bubbly almost like soap lather.. past 3 days it was clear watery and at times thick egg white type?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hormone fluctuations: As ovulation approaches, estrogen predominates and the cervical mucus becomes clear and stretchy. After ovulation, progesterone predominates and the cervical mucus becomes thicker and less elastic.
