a question about checking your CM could be TMI question


Ok i know this must sound really stupid but how do u check your CM is it just whats in your underwear or do u have to put fingers up to check? I havent had any CM at all this month so far im on CD10 so was just wondering do u check from what you see in your underwear or is there another way to check.

Sorry if this is a TMI question lol...

you can usually just wipe as far as I'm aware...

However I'm sure if you wanna stick one up there it'll put a smile on your face lmao sorry

They say to put you middle finger up there, usually requiring insertion to at least your second knuckle....you can then feel around a bit for your cervix, then see what comes out!! Some people can actually kind of "pinch" with middle and thumb to get a good sample. It's easiest to do when you are sitting on the toilet. Oh the things we do!!
