Is amniotic fluid sticky?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Amniotic fluid shouldn't have a sticky consistency. If you notice something sticky or a thick whitish residue in your underwear, it's unlikely to be your waters. It is more likely to be heavy vaginal discharge or signs of your mucus plug.

Consult a Obstetrician and Gynaecologist

I'm just wondering if taking HCG can actually help me get pregnant, or is it just to assist with the process? It's been exactly 10 days since I took it, and I'm having abdominal pain, back pain, body aches, and I'm peeing a lot more frequently. I was given HCG on the 12th day, and my doctor mentioned there's ovulation happening on both sides. Could these symptoms mean I'm pregnant?

No these symptoms are not related to pregnancy

I'm a 37-year-old woman and recently I had a lot of vaginal discharge with some itching, so my doctor gave me clingen forte vaginal capsules. I finished the whole treatment and I'm not having those symptoms anymore. But now I'm five days late for my period, and I'm wondering if its possible that clingen forte could be causing this delay?

there is no evidence that use of clingen forte suppositiries delay periods . But if u are a sexually active person would advise to go for a urine pregnancy test and if it comes negative to go ahead with a b hcg blood test that will be definitive of ruling out any pregnancy. In case both negative then it would be advised to visit the gynaecologist for further treatmen
