    Question

    Not to sound disgusting but I am having this clear discharge that sticks together and kind of feels like silly putty. Is this normal?

    Answer

    Not disgusting at all - quite normal for the middle of your cycle - it is called "spin" or fertile mucus - you are likely ovulating. It is probably stretchy, too! No worries!
