Cervix issues leading to infertility- maybe?

Does any one have an issue with their cervix that led to IF? I have been unexplained for 4 years, and we are starting IVF. Then, my doc tried to a mock transfer and my cervix is very tight. It seems most docs feel that if you can have AF, sperm can get in there, but it makes me wonder if it didn't make things more difficult. Not sure if anyone has heard anything about cervix issues, etc... I am curious. In the end, they have a way around if for our IVF, but I am just wondering if anyone else had this experience.

Hey Jess,

I don't have an answer for you, but I want you to know that I too, question everything that even seems remotely possible. Being that we are unexplained, I suppose it's only natural. We want to know the reason so very badly!! We feel like it's staring us in the face but no one has recognized it yet. I totally get it. It's really frustrating!

I have a tipped uterus, a corkscrew like cervix, and very little CM. I feel like that's gotta mean something . . . but I have no confirmation from a doctor.

Hang in there!
