Cervical Mucus Hostility and Pregnancy Causes Treatment

Pregnancy is considered one of the most significant gifts of nature and the most vital essence of being a woman. During pregnancy, various parts of the body are involved and are required to be perfectly healthy. Therefore, the proper functioning of all the features is essential to ensure a smooth and successful pregnancy experience. The gynac in Mumbai states that a critical section in pregnancy refers to the cervical mucus. What is cervical mucus? Cervical mucus is a thick, dense, gel-like fluid that is produced by the cervix. The composition of this discharged fluid changes during every menstrual cycle due to multiple hormonal changes. The fluctuating hormones stimulate the cervix to produce cervical mucus. This mucus changes its texture and thickness as the woman has conceived an egg. Why do women need cervical mucus to conceive an egg?
