No EWCM?

Question

I don’t really get EWCM any time during my cycle. I do get positive OPKs tho & my cycle is pretty consistent and regular. The most i get is maaaaaaybeeeee a little watery cm but I feel like most of the time it’s pretty lotion like if anything at all. We used preseed when we conceived our first, but I’m wondering if anyone has the same issue.... did this affect your ttc journey?

Answer

I feel like I used to get SO MUCH of it in my early 20’s (before I ever knew what it was or meant lol). At 29, I get it for like a day or two (not as heavy) and it’s always like 4-5 days before I ovulate soooo idk if it’s doing much to help with the baby making process. My doctor told me that just because it’s not coming out, doesn’t mean there isn’t any up closer to the cervix but idk... We used preseed for the first time earlier this year, only did one month, did work but trying again this month as the past few cycles felt dryer (I’m on Letrozole so idk if that might have affected it). Been trying for 3 years now so not sure if it’s a CM issue or what. All tests are normal and I’ve had a bunch of them 🤦🏻‍♀️

Answer

Used to have EWCM in my 20s. After 29 I kinda stopped having, maybe very very little on OVU day. Now don't have at all, exactly as you say, positive OPKs every month, regular cycles etc, but not really "favorable" CM. I wouldn't know if this affects TTC as I am trying for my first, also using preseed. OBGYN says CM is also affected by hormonal imbalances due to stress, or sometimes dehydration, not necessarily a must for every woman, but helpful to have. We can definitely succeed without! 💪🏻

Answer

I no longer produce excess ewcm, I only get watery. So we use 1g of preseed.

Answer

I have never seen any EWCM for me during my cycle... maybe SLIGHTLY slimy but never actual EWCM. I am 3 kids deep, naturally conceived.
