What does the mucus plug look like in early pregnancy? What is its function?
Can you tell me about the mucus plug in early pregnancy? What is its function and what does it look like?
The mucus plug is a thick, gelatinous substance that forms in the cervix during pregnancy. Its main function is to block the entrance to the uterus, acting as a protective barrier against infections entering the womb. The mucus plug can vary in appearance but is often described as being clear or slightly pinkish in color and can have a stringy texture.
