💦 PCOS comes with its own set of surprises –

💦 PCOS comes with its own set of surprises – like cervica1 mucu$ (C.M.) either being MIA or showing up on repeat! Here’s why:

**Not Seeing C.M.? Here’s Why:**

1️⃣ **Hormones are Napping:** Low estrogen means your cervix might not be making that signature egg white mucu$ 💤

2️⃣ **Testosterone’s Taking Over:** Your body shifts from producing enough estrogen in favor of making testosterone which can stall follicle development and block mucu$ production 🛑

3️⃣ **Stress is a Sabotage** 🧘‍♀️: Too much stress throws off hormone balance, drying things up.

4️⃣ **Poor Hydration** 🚫💧: Not enough H2O? Your cervix is thirsty too! Hydrate, babe.

5️⃣ **Nutrient Gaps:** Low zinc, vitamin A, or B-vitamins? These nutrients play a role in C.M. production 🌱

**Seeing C.M. All. The. Time? Here’s Why:**

1️⃣ **Estrogen Waves 🌊:** In PCOS, estrogen can spike multiple times before ovulation, meaning mucu$ shows up often! This can make it hard to tell if you’ve ovulated or not without following other fertile signs.

2️⃣ **No Ovulation Yet:** Your body might be trying to ovulate without fully getting there (hello, repeat C.M.) 🔄 This is pretty much the same reason as above just stated differently. 🙃

3️⃣ **Follicles are partying instead of studying 🥳:** Some of those follicular cysts in the ovary aren’t maturing bc of a misfiring pituitary gland: too much prolactin, not enough FSH.

4️⃣ **Lingering LH Surges:** With PCOS, that Luteinizing Hormone can keep trying for ovulation, bringing mucu$ back.

5️⃣ **A Not So Friendly Infection 🦠:** Sometimes, extra mucu$ is a sign your body’s fighting a little invader (get it checked!).

PCOS can make the cervica1 mucu$ dance feel like a rollercoaster 🎢

But knowledge is power, we go over this in the healthy cycles academy tab in the PCOSa.pp
