A member asked:

In my 30's. why is it the few days surrounding ovulation i create very thick clear and white mucus-like discharge, feel bloat? sometimes blood tinged

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hormone changes: at ovulation, cause the mucous change you see. The bloating also is related to the increase in progesterone at this time of your cycle.
