What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Cervical mucus is a biological fluid secreted by the endocervical glandular epithelium whose quantitative and qualitative characteristics vary in response to the hormonal stimulus produced by the ovary during the woman's menstrual cycle. As a fertility factor, it performs numerous biological functions: transport, nourishment, defense and capacitation of spermatozoa, defense against pathogens of the female genital tract.
