How clear does it have to be? And can someone remind me of the test to tell if it's sperm or EWCM (something about putting it in water I think?)

If the mucus turns into a ball in water, is EWCM, if it dissolves.. or just spreads out, its semen...

Tammy, I don't know how clear it has to be, but I seldom have clear CM in any state. It's always either cloudy or whitish, sometimes even a bit yellow. I have had yellowish EWCM for a couple of days now, but it's definitely EWCM.

Hey Tam...

It's not so much about the clearness... it's about the consistency and the stretchability. It doesn't have to be crystal clear. As long as it feels slippery slidey and stretches... you're in business!!!!

ITA! And usually if I am not sure I chart it as ewcm to be on the safe side.
