Cervical Stenosis and Non-receptive cervical mucus are some of the cervical factors responsible for female infertility.
As the hormones within the female body fluctuate, so too does the texture of the cervical mucus changes.
Moreover, the sperm fails to swim through to the uterus because of less quantity of cervical mucus or due to any discrepancy in its receptivity.
