1. The relationship between cervical mucus and ovulation
1. What is ovulation? Period
Ovulation is the process of release and transfer of a mature egg from the ovary to the fallopian tube. Normally the lining of the uterus also thickens in preparation for fertilization. If fertilization fails, the unfertilized egg is excreted by the lining of the uterus during the menstrual cycle.
2. Ovulation and mucus
It is important to understand the characteristics of cervical mucus during ovulation, because it can protect and nourish sperm, while ensuring that sperm can pass smoothly through the female reproductive tract and find the egg. The characteristics and pattern of cervical mucus present can affect fertilization.

3. Egg white cervical mucus
The hormonal level of estrogen during ovulation surges, causing cervical mucus to proliferate. Egg white cervical mucus is the fertility fluid produced by the cervix during ovulation, a perfect fluid to catalyze fertilization.
4. Monitor cervical mucus
To get pregnant, you need to monitor the appearance and texture of your cervical mucus during your fertile days. After washing your hands, insert your middle finger into the vagina and hold it close to the cervix to get the mucus. Then roll the mucus between your fingers and pull your fingers apart to see how far the mucus extends.
5. Appearance of Cervical Mucus
Cervical fluid production is highest during ovulation, and it will be egg white in color, transparent, and sticky. onceOnce you determine that your mucus has these characteristics, it is a good time to try to conceive.
6. Bad cervical mucus
If you find that your cervical mucus is thick mucus during ovulation and is not as transparent and elastic as it should be, then this is a bad cervical mucus. Cervical mucus will prevent sperm from entering the uterus smoothly and reaching the egg. So when you notice it, you should consult your doctor.
7. Causes of bad cervical mucus
Poor cervical mucus quality is usually caused by unhealthy diet, stressful lifestyle, hormonal imbalance and the influence of drugs. So you need to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle to ensure good cervical mucus quality and promote pregnancy.
2. Ovulation day and timing of fertilization
1. On the day of ovulation
Most women believe that the day of ovulation is the most suitable time for conception, so they can try to have sex if they know when they ovulate. But in fact, the day of ovulation is not the best day for pregnancy.
2. The day before ovulation
On the other hand, the day before ovulation is one of the best days for conception. This is mainly because the sperm has enough time to reach the process of capacitation, and therefore mature enough to reach the uterus, and fertilization is successful.
3. Two days before ovulation
Even two days before ovulation are good days for conception. In fact, if you have sex 2 days before ovulation, you are more likely to conceive than if you have sex 1 day before.
