Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Unclear term: It is not clear what you are referring to by cervical fluid. That is not a term I am familiar with. If you are experiencing abnormal discharge from the vagina then schedule a visit for testing. Use your past menstrual cycle history as a guide to predict when the next one is likely to occur.
