To collect cervical mucus, insert clean fingers (index and middle) into the vagina close to the cervix. Remove your fingers, rub the mucus between the two fingers, squeeze them together, and then slowly spread them apart.
What types of cervical mucus are there?
- Egg white
Possible fertile days. May indicate HIGH chance of getting pregnant
The discharge is transparent and stretchy like raw egg white. Can be stretched up to 4 inches (10 cm) and may indicate the most fertile days.
- Sticky
May indicate LOW chance of getting pregnant
The discharge is cloudy or transparent, and lumpy like starch dissolved in water. It sticks, tears, and doesn’t stretch.
- Creamy
May indicate LOW chance of getting pregnant
The discharge is white and uniform like body lotion and breaks easily.
