There has been talk that certain configurations of cervical mucus either by density or by acidity of the medium could affect fertility. The reality is that at present there is no evidence that these parameters can significantly affect the possibility of having a pregnancy.

In any case, if in specific cases these parameters could affect the couple's fertility, they would be very easily solved with the fertility techniques that are currently used, either Artificial Insemination or In Vitro Fertilization, so there are no major studies on the subject.
