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

Sperm motility

Uterine muscle contractions

Sperm rheotaxis

CatSper calcium channels (like sea urchin sperm) to sense calcium influx and monitor the direction of the

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).

The capacities the sperm gain are those for:

recognizing the cues that will guide them to the egg

undergoing the acrosome reaction

fusing with the egg cell membrane
