Cervical mucus problems
When you’re ovulating, mucus in your cervix becomes thinner so sperm can swim through it more easily.
If there’s a problem with the mucus, it can make it harder to conceive.
Fibroids
Non-cancerous growths called fibroids in or around the womb can affect fertility. In some cases, they may prevent a fertilised egg attaching itself in the womb, or they may block a fallopian tube.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a condition where small pieces of the womb lining (the endometrium) start growing in other places, such as the ovaries.
This can damage the ovaries or fallopian tubes and cause fertility problems.
