I am normally 28 day cycles like clockwork. I still have clear cervical mucus today. Have a little each day. Have not had intercourse since the weekend of Thanksgiving. My nurse said the CM tends to indicate Estrogen. Yet the missed period indicates progesterone (possibly from the cysts which she said may be producing progesterone). Would you complete chem 22 and hormone work-up?
