Brief Answer:
Can be due to hormonal changes.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

The absence of egg white mucus during ovulation can be due to hormonal changes or due to excessive sexual activities in which you are not able to identify the regular discharge.

This is not related to the use of KY lubricant. This can happen due to excessive stress, exercise or use of hormone-related medicines also. It can be a normal variation also. No need to worry.

The change in consistency of mucus is not a sure sign of ovulation. You can use ovulation prediction kits to find out about ovulation accurately.

I hope this answers your query. Wishing you good health.
