Sperm And Cervical Mucus Penetration Study

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 89330

A laboratory study in which a semen sample and a sample of cervical mucus are brought together on a slide, and the laboratory watches how far and how well the sperm move into and through the mucus. The mucus at the entrance to the womb is a barrier sperm have to cross on the way to an egg, and this shows whether they can. It is done in the laboratory on samples collected separately, not on a sample taken from the body after intercourse.
