Abstract

In the uterine fluid of infertile women the amylase activity is significantly lower (90.00 to 357.75 mg/hr/100 ml) than that in parous women (172.14 to 536.99/hr/100 ml) during the different phases of menstrual cycle. Possibly the low enzyme activity in infertile women can impair the sperm capacitation and thus adversely affect the fertility of these infertile women.
