What are the symptoms before ovulation? Learn professional knowledge together

The female physiological structure is very complex, and there will be different symptoms at different times. For example, when a woman is about to ovulate, some symptoms will appear, such as rising body temperature, cervical mucus becoming thinner and transparent, cervical opening opening, etc.

1. Rising body temperature: When ovulation is approaching, a woman's body temperature will rise. This is because the hormone fluctuations in the body affect the woman's body temperature regulation center. Generally, the basal body temperature measurement method is used. After ensuring that you sleep more than 6 hours the night before, you should use a thermometer to measure your body temperature the next morning and keep a record. If you find that your body temperature has been higher than the previous six days for three consecutive days, it means that the ovulation period is basically over.

2. Opening of the cervix: During menstruation, due to the influence of sex hormones, the cervix may undergo three changes:

(1) When the menstrual period just ends, the cervix is ​​lower than the pelvic cavity;

(2) As ovulation approaches, the cervix rises from the vaginal opening and becomes as soft as a sponge. The cervical opening begins to open and opens to its maximum during ovulation.

(3) After the ovulation period ends, the cervix returns to its original position, becomes hard, and the cervical opening closes.

3. Cervical mucus becomes thinner and more transparent: Before ovulation, women's cervical mucus will also change. Before ovulation, women can wipe their vagina with toilet paper before and after urinating and carefully observe the vaginal secretions. Normally, before ovulation, cervical mucus becomes transparent, moist, elastic and very lubricated. This change is to make it easier for male sperm to pass through this layer of mucus and achieve conception. Therefore, the chance of pregnancy during ovulation is higher. When the ovulation period is over, the vagina will become dry again and the mucus will become thick and opaque.
