Translocation of sperm from the vagina to the oviduct involves several processes that work at different times and places:

Sperm motility

Uterine muscle contractions

The cells of the oviduct induce the sperm to mature, and mammalian sperm complete their development in the female oviducts. This maturation is called capacitation (the gaining of capacity).
