Need some experienced ladies advice

Caroline

So I’m trying to track my ovulation without using a predictor kit. (I just want to get to know my body) I had a really weird discharge of this thick, mucus like substance. It was pinkish, brownish in color and pretty sticky. That was yesterday, then this morning after wiping I noticed some brown discharge with 4 little clots. I’ve never really noticed this before. My period ended about 7 days ago. Has anyone experienced this before? Are these signs of ovulation or something else? Anything would be helpful. Thank you in advanced!
