Note

  • The postcoital test has been introduced 100 years ago and is widely accepted. Infertility evaluation is frequently begun with PCT intended to evaluate sperm deficiencies or mucus hostility. However, although generally known and easy to perform, there is no common agreement on the standardization of the PCT. It is well known that the hormonal influence is of paramount influence.
