Patient's question:
I am preparing for pregnancy and went to the hospital for a check-up to examine my uterus. The doctor told me that my cervical mucus is abnormal and it may affect pregnancy. Is this true?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it can affect your fertility. When sperm passes through the cervix, not only does the inflammation of the cervix severely reduce sperm vitality, but the viscous secretions also make it difficult for sperm to pass through. If the inflammatory secretions are toxic to sperm, they will consume too much energy, leading to a shorter lifespan, and a large number of sperm will be swallowed by inflammatory cells, resulting in female infertility. It is recommended that you seek timely treatment at a formal infertility and sterility specialty hospital. Wishing you good luck with your pregnancy.
