I also agree. Do it. But for me EWCM always comes about a week before ovulation.
@Daisy oh which tests do you use?
@Isabel yeah because it’s stretchy atm but just not egg white. Am I fertile?
I use the clear blue ones linked below. Never got a positive test with the little strips, despite my natural cycles app saying I’d ovulated and my cycle being regular. I don’t really get any mucus changes that are particularly noticeable, but I also tend to ovulate about a week after my period finishes rather than 2 weeks. My cycles are about 26 days long! https://www.boots.com/clearblue-digital-ovulation-test-with-dual-hormone-indicator-10s-10154162
Stretchy can be fertile.. But the best is to use the tests to determine ovulation. Or what i have heard is to check your basal body temperature each morning. Some people said that the temperature checking is just as accurate. And cheaper than buying tests.
Just do it anyway, can’t hurt! Mucus for me is not a reliable way of tracking, and I have to do digital ovulation testing as the strips never gave me a positive!
