A descriptive and observational study of 150 sterile women assisted in "Ana Betancourt de Mora" University Gynecoobstetrical Provincial Hospital in Camagüey was carried out from June 1, 2012 to May 31, 2013, with the objective of determining the influence of the endogenous vaginal sepsis on the quality of the cervical mucus in these patients, for which a registration model was made which included the following aspects: personal data, history of vaginal infections, evaluation of the cervical mucus, microbiological findings and techniques for genital washing; a survey was also applied to verify the knowledge they had in this respect. White skin females, those older than 35 years, positive microbiological results, as well as yeast and vaginosis as the most common diagnosis prevailed in the series; also, the cervical mucus was not adequate in all the cases, and the ignorance level of the patients about the topic was evident

Keywords : woman; infertility; cervical mucus; endogenous vaginal sepsis; secondary health care.
