Question
I always get this stretchy clear fluid, almost mucus. I only started getting this after I had my son. There is no smell, but I get if off and on between periods. I am getting a pap test done again soon and am just wondering if that is a sign of cervical cancer?
Answer
This is called fertile mucus and likely happens mid cycle - it shows you are ovulating. No worries.
