******* It is not abnormal to have a sharp pain in the lower abdomen at ovulation time (It can be accompanied by anterior thigh pain). At ovulation time the cervical mucous is usually thinner and clear. There may be some

streaking of blood in it at mid month. You can probably time the onset of this day or two of discomfort be counting 14 days to the next menses. (Ovulation occurs 14 days BEFORE the start of your next menses.) If this occurs only on those days (14+/- 1 day) this is probably a normal phenomenon for you! ============================================= *Note: Opinions expressed here are for educational purposes only.
