The Role of the Cervical and Vaginal Factor in Fertility

from W.O.W. MD - Your Wellness Optimizing Warrior

If you're experiencing fertility challenges, you should be aware of the different factors that have a significant influence on your fertility health. In this episode we're covering two of those factors: the cervical factor and the vaginal factor. There are various health aspects to consider for each factor, and this information is valuable to all women. The cervix is a structure that guards the uterus. The size, shape, and appearance of the cervix differs greatly depending on a woman's age, medical background, and whether or not she's had children in the past. The interaction between the sperm and the cervical mucus is very important to fertility. A woman's body has built-in systems to protect it, and in some cases—typically an overactive response—sperm will be deemed as a "foreign invader" and killed. This will have an effect on how baby-friendly your body is. Removal of abnormal cells on the cervix can also impact mucus production, which can in turn have a negative impact on fertility. There are various aspects of vaginal health to consider for fertility as well. First, women who experience pain during sex will have a difficult time conceiving, for the obvious reason that intercourse may be difficult or less common. There are topical therapies and other types of therapies that can help mitigate this pain. Vaginal dryness and recurrent vaginal infections can also reduce the likelihood of sperm survival. Vaginal health issues should not be ignored, so don't delay going to a medical professional. The best doctor to see is a gynecologist—especially if you are trying to get pregnant.
