increase in CM

[Allexa]

hi ladies. i have had a large increase in cm since my last af. (i think my last af was about 1 1/2 weeks ago) anyway dh is outa town so i missed my chance this month. but for some reason i have had this large amount of cm. and i went for a short walk the other day and for some reason it was like as if that walk made a LOT of cm come out. im sorry for tmi but i mean it was WAY more than i ever had b4. i am worried tho cuz it has been a little watery with a few chunks. (sorry i no this sounds gross) has any1 ever had this happen b4. i have a dr. app. on monday so i will ask my dr all this but i was wondering what u ladies think. is this weird? u think something could be rong? i am goin nuts waiting for my appointment and on top of it all i keep seeing commercials about hpv and cervical cancer so thats making me worry even more. anyway, any info or advice or anything would be great.

this can be an open forum to :)

I have HPV and cervical dysplasia....a large amount of CM is not a sign of this.

Unfortunately there are no signs of HPV except for abnormal paps.

Okay - I may have been wrong...read this.

HPV is the only proven cause of cervical cancer, and is implicated in chronic urinary tract infections, vaginosis and vaginitis (with vaginal discharge).

If you have a vaginitis or vaginosis then it could also be HPV I guess....who knows.

Don't worry yourself though..if you neve had an abnormal pap there really isn't much to worry about.  I don't think they can test for HPV unless an abnormal pap is registered....lot's legal mumbo jumbo about testing for HPV unless reason to believe you may have it

My CM is differnt every month (although I usually have none).  Sometimes it does seem thick as you said, but you might not be drinking enough water.  Also, you said more came when you walked, which is normal.  Any type of exercise will make the CM more prevalent on your underwear or tp.  I'm sure you're fine.  It seems that while TTC, we really look into every little thing, but don't worry.  You can try again next month, sorry DH is out of town :(
