Dear ANA:
The "egg white" consistency of cervical secretions (clear; stretches out) appears between one and four days before ovulation. When this sign of impending ovulation occurs, begin having relations at least every other day until the mucus changes into the scant, thick, cloudy, non-stretchable secretion that follows ovulation. One can have relations every day if you desire: the normal male can ejaculate every day without any loss of fertility. Since sperms live for two days in the fallopian tubes, relations every second day provides adequate biologic exposure to become pregnant.
To more closely time intercourse to ovulation, a urine ovulation detection kit (available at pharmacies and in the pharmacy section of many stores)gives a color change that anticipates ovulation by one or two days.
