Menstrual Cycle Day 20

2 Comments



What is happening internally?

The corpus luteum continues to release high amounts of progesterone, to maintain the uterine lining. If conception occurred, the blastocyst (the fertilized egg) is floating in the uterus.

Outward symptoms:

Basal body temperatures remain high above the coverline.

Cervix is low, firm, and closed. Cervical fluid is dry. You may experience bloating or water retention.

A little confused for the past week ive been thinking that i could be pregnant i have had nauesa for a little over two weeks read about decidual bleeds but thought that was unlikely except for the fact that the nausea has not subsided complelty and there was little to no explanation for it. i did not know that the egg could float in the uterus but if it does will implantation occur? i always thought it would have been flushed out my cycle hasnt been normal for a few months but i just thought that was normal it has been ranging from 17 to 20 days and i found this any information would be great and extremly helpful.
