Watery discharge after ovulation, is a cervical mucus that is no longer clear and stretchy like a few days ago when your body was gearing up to release an egg. What you may see now is a cloudy and rather thick discharge. If you do not get pregnant that cycle, hormone levels drop and your period begins again.
It is one of the main components of vaginal discharge, it is typically clear or white, and it may have a faint odor. In early pregnancy, there may be noticeably more of this mucus than usual. It may also have a runny, watery consistency.
During ovulation, cervical mucus levels are at their highest and the texture goes from thick and sticky to watery and, finally, to the consistency of egg whites. Once ovulation is over, cervical mucus tends to noticeably decrease within 1-2 days.
If you have a 28-day cycle, this happens around day 10. Around this same time, you may feel a wet, slippery substance around your vaginal opening. It might even feel like you just got your period. This substance looks thick and white or yellowish in color, and still feels sticky when you touch it.
In addition, as the pregnancy progresses, women may notice that they may have excessive vaginal discharge, and they may confuse it for urine. However, having a watery discharge doesn't mean that you're pregnant. Other factors can lead to watery or clear discharge.
Watery vaginal discharge is typically normal and can be due to natural hormonal fluctuations that occur during reproductive processes in a woman's body, like ovulation and pregnancy, or during sexual arousal or menopause.
After conception, a fertilized egg travels through your fallopian tubes to your uterus. The fertilized egg (called an embryo) implants (attaches) into the wall of your uterus. This triggers the placenta to form. Your placenta begins producing and releasing human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) into your blood and pee.
Some women may notice symptoms as early as 5 DPO, although they won't know for certain that they are pregnant until much later. Early signs and symptoms include implantation bleeding or cramps, which can occur 5–6 days after the sperm fertilizes the egg. Other early symptoms include breast tenderness and mood changes.
An increase in vaginal discharge can be a sign of pregnancy. It is typically a thin clear, or milky white liquid.
-For the nearly 5,000 sperm that make it into the utero-tubal junction, around 1,000 of these reach the inside of the Fallopian tube. -For the 1,000 sperm entering the tube, only around 200 actually reach the egg. -In the end, only 1 lucky sperm out of this group of 200 actually penetrates and fertilizes the egg!
The 'fertile window' is the day an egg is released from the ovary (ovulation) and the five days beforehand. Having sex (intercourse) during this time gives you the best chance of getting pregnant.
Progesterone levels spike right after ovulation, and this change in hormones can lead to premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms. These include breast tenderness, nausea, fatigue, cramps, headaches, food cravings, and bloating.
Hormonal imbalances are the most likely cause of varying levels of clear vaginal discharge. Ovulation, pregnancy, and sexual excitement can all cause an increase in the amount of clear vaginal discharge. Medications: Certain medications like antibiotics or birth control pills can affect bacterial growth in the vagina.
Aiming for the man to ejaculate as deeply as possible into the woman's vagina. This means that the smallest amount of semen escapes and is retained as close to the cervix (the neck of the uterus) as possible. The woman can try lying on her back with her lower back elevated on a small pillow for around 20-30 minutes.
If the egg likes the sperm, it sends chemical signals that tell it to swim faster. However, if the egg doesn't like the sperm, the signals it sends encourage the sperm to slow down. It's proper law of attraction at work, with the egg actually ghosting the sperm it's not interested in.
If one egg is fertilised by two sperm, it results in three sets of chromosomes, rather than the standard two - one from the mother and two from the father. And, according to researchers, three sets of chromosomes are "typically incompatible with life and embryos do not usually survive".
Symptoms of rising hCG levels can include fatigue, nausea/vomiting (aka morning sickness), dizziness or light-headedness, breast tenderness, and feeling emotionally sensitive.
Some women may begin noticing the first early signs of pregnancy a week or two after conception, while others will start to feel symptoms closer to four or five weeks after conception. Some women may not feel symptoms until their period is noticeably late, or even farther into pregnancy.
It's recommended that you avoid strenuous physical activities like heavy weight-lifting or high-impact cardio during your two-week wait as it could lead to uterine contractions and affect the implantation process. After the first few days of our waiting period, you can do some light exercising like walking or swimming.
