Answer 3

Determining the viscosity of cervical mucous is one of the steps involved in following natural family planning (non chemical or barrier-method birth control). When a woman is fertile, her cervical mucous is very thin. During her non-fertile times, it's very thick. So, natural birth control involves tracking her period, taking her temperature (it's a little elevated during ovulation) and checking the texture of her cervical mucous. This way, she knows when not to have s*x to avoid pregnancy.
