Questioni found egg white cervical discharge today(11 th day of the cycle).does it mean that today i might have ovulated or that i wil be ovulating in one or two days?my partner has recovered from a mild fever (due to cold).will this affect my conception?
AnswerIf this is your first day of egg white mucous, then you are about to ovulate. When the mucous shifts back to a more sticky consistency, then you should have ovulated. However, to be absolutely certain, you should confirm this using temperature charting, as some women have multiple periods of fertile mucous before they actually ovulate.
Your partner's mild fever should not significantly affect your chances of conception. Even a high fever only reduces sperm count by about 30%, and the effect of a low-grade fever would be even less.
