EI-Mowafi, MD Associate Professor, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Benha Faculty of Medicine, Egypt Physiology of Reproduction Pregnancy occurs when a mature liberated ovum is fertilized by a mature capacitated spermatozoon. The Sperm: ● The spermatozoa leave the testis carrying 23 chromosomes but not yet capable of fertilization. ● Their maturation is completed through their journey in the 6 meters of the epididymis and when mixed with the seminal plasma from the epididymis, seminal vesicle and prostate gland. ● After semen is ejaculated, the sperms reach the cervix by their own motility within seconds leaving behind the seminal plasma in the vagina. ● At time of ovulation, the cervical mucous is in the most favourable condition for sperm penetration and capacitation as: - It becomes more copious, less viscous and its macromolecules arrange in parallel chains providing channels for sperms passage. - Its contents from glucose and chloride are increased. ● The sperms ascent through the uterine cavity and Fallopian tubes to reach the site of fertilization in the ampulla by: 1. its own motility, 2. uterine and tubal peristalsis which is aggravated by the prostaglandins in the seminal plasma. ● The sperms reach the tube within 30-40 minutes but they are capable of fertilization after 2-6 hours. This period is needed for sperm capacitation. ● Capacitation of sperms is the process after which the sperm becomes able to penetrate the zona pellucida,that surrounding the ovum and fertilize it. The cervical and tubal secretions are mainly responsible for this capacitation. Capacitation is believed to be due to : a. increase in the DNA concentration in the nucleus, b. increase permeability of the coat of sperm head to allow more release of hyaluronidase.

El-Mowafi ● The ovum leaves the the ovary after rupture of the Graafian follicle, carrying 23 chromosomes and surrounded by the zona pellucida and corona radiata. ● The ovum is picked up by the fimbriated end of the Fallopian tubes and moved towards the ampulla by the ciliary movement of the cells and rhythmic peristalsis of the tube. Fertilization: ● Millions of sperms ejaculated in
