Possible to ovulate without EWCM??

Question

Hello all, I'm currently TTC, been trying for about 2 years now. I've never experienced any EWCM, most just very thin creamy discharge or very watery discharge. Does this mean I am not ovulating. I've never ever used ovulation tests, maybe I should....

Answer

Yesss. Many months, including the one of my BFP, I never noticed it. Some months I would get it a few days before AF. I trusted OPKs not CM.

Answer

Your doctor can tell you better than us. There's blood work they can do on (or around) CD21 to see if you ovulated that particular cycle. Creamy cm typically isn't going to be very fertile, but I suppose it would be possible.

Answer

EWCM can be an indication that you're entering your most fertile time, but it's not an indication that you've ovulated. You definitely need to do more than monitor CM. ovulation tests would be a good place to start. Keep in mind though, ovulation tests aren't necessarily a surefire way to tell that you've ovulated either. The tests only pick up the elevation in the hormone that triggers ovulation. If you're still concerned, ask your doctor.
