Do Tell: How Do You Keep Track of Your Period? I'm sure many of you are so in tune with your bodies that you know exactly when Aunt Flo is going to pay you a visit. Some women count days and keep track of their periods on their calendar, some women record the details of their cycles on a fertility awareness chart, and others just know based on their birth control (how many pills they have left in their pack or how long they've been wearing their Nuvaring). Of course PMS and the responses our bodies give us are a great indication (did someone say sore boobs?), but how do you keep track of your cycle?

Cervical Fluid: What It Says About Your Fertility

Cervical Fluid: What It Says About Your Fertility So I've already gone into detail about how cervical fluid is totally normal and how you have different kinds, but what does it all mean in relation to your fertility? As a general rule, you are most fertile on the last day of egg white cervical fluid (this is the day before or the day you ovulate). This wetness provides nutrients for the sperm to survive, and also makes it easy for those little guys to swim to your fallopian tubes and find your egg.

Cervical Fluid: It's Totally Normal I'm sure you've all noticed some wetness down there in your lady business — maybe you thought it was some kind of an infection, but then miraculously, it goes away, right? Well that's your cervical fluid, and it's not an infection at all. It's actually totally normal, and if you take notice of it in the weeks leading up to your period, you'll be able to tell when you're the most fertile.

Do You Believe in Menstrual Synchrony? If you've ever lived with other women, and none of you were on hormonal birth control, you may have discovered that your cycles slowly began to mimic each others. This is called menstrual synchrony, but many scientists will say that women who live together, menstruate together is hogwash. I've actually experienced this so there's got to be some truth to it.

Can You Get Pregnant When You Have Your Period? For a while, I always thought that you could have unprotected sex while you had your period, and it was a "safe" time when you wouldn't have to worry about getting pregnant. Then I heard there are a few cases where women have gotten pregnant, so what's the deal?! If a woman has a typical 28-day menstrual cycle, then she will ovulate in the middle of her cycle (around 14 days after the 1st day of her period).
