Guaifenesin is reputed to â??thinâ?? cervical mucus â?? the fluid produced by a womanâ??s cervix during her ovulatory cycle. Cervical mucus plays an important role in human reproduction, providing a fertile, protective medium that allows sperm to move through the cervical canal, swim the expanse of the uterus, and ultimately fertilize the egg. For cervical mucus to exhibit â??fertileâ?? properties - emerging around the time a woman ovulates - the fluid must be both abundant and sufficiently thin (or viscous instead of thick and sticky). In addition, fertile-quality cervical mucus will alter the PH-balance of the vagina to make a normally acidic, sperm-hostile environment into â??sperm-friendlyâ?? setting commensurate with successful baby-making.
In short, fertile-quality cervical fluids are vital to sperm survival and transport, as well as to providing a both insulative and nutritive function in sustaining sperm on the way to the egg.
