GLOW REVEALS: DOWN THERE: What is egg-white cervical mucus?
Egg-white cervical mucus (EWCM) is called that because it is similar in color and consistency to the popular breakfast food, pre-scramble. EWCM is slippery and, when held between two fingers, should be able to stretch 1 or so inches.
Similar in look and function as semen, egg-white cervical mucus is the Magic School Bus of the vagina, transporting sperm (and helping it survive) all the way up to the egg that is waiting to be fertilized.
During this time, your estrogen levels are at their highest which is why the amount of CM production is also higher. Put simply EWCM is the most fertile type of CM and it let's you know that your body is ready to get pregnant.
