Ovulation On Bc? Posted: 11-19-07 15:03pm
I have been on birth control pills for
over a year now. I know that they prevent
ovulation and thicken the CM so you don't
get pregnant. Ever since I've been on
birth control pills, my CM has been the
same...minimal and thick. All of a
sudden, while I was in class today, I
started to feel really wet down there. I
went to the bathroom and noticed a very
stretchy, clear CM flowing out of me. I
haven't had CM like this since before I
went on the pill. I know it is 99%
effective, but do you guys think that this
could potentially be ovulation against the
odds? I've been taking it every day at
the same time like I should be, but in the
whole year that I've been on the pill,
I've never had CM like this. I wouldn't
account it to anything else (its not from
being horny because..well...I wasn't?
haha. it shouldn't be any kind of
infection because its normal, clear CM and
doesn't itch or anything at all). Do you
think I should use a condom this month
along with the pill just to be safe or is
this something I shouldn't really be
worrying about?

You could always buy an ovulation
detection kit. If this is fertile CM then
you need to use protection for a week to
be safe. Again as you said it's unlikely,
but if you want to be safe, go ahead and
use a condom.
