Ovulation During Menstruation? Posted: 02-28-07 13:43pm
I learned that one can check the time of
ovulation by monitoring the cervical
mucus. I also learned cervical mucus
should be transparent and really slimy(
like egg white ) when ovulating and watery
like and dries fast on finger when
furthest from ovulation period.
My first day of menstruation was on the
feb 07, so supposedly I had to be
ovulating on the 20th or the 21st (im on
28 cycle) but when I checked my cervical
mucus, the characteristic was of water.
clear and not slimy just like water.
What does this mean? That I was not
ovulating? Is it possible that my
ovulation period falls on same time as my
menstruation period? Coz thats the only
time I find my cervical mucus as slimy and
transparent as ever!
Im really confused. need your help on
this. Thanks in advance.

I beleive that you can ovulate during your
menstration. When I got pregnant a few
years ago I was told that I was 8 weeks
pregnant (they say it's technically 2
weeks off so "technically" I was 6 weeks)
well i ended up having a molar pregnancy
and after my surgery my doctor told me
that I was exactly 8 weeks and I ended up
concieving during my period. So, it is
very possible. Hope this helps at least a
little.

Yes, you can ovulate anytime of the month,
even when you have your period, as odd as
that may seem. That is why having sex
during your period is not a form of birth
control.
