Question 1

what are the causes of an enlarged uterus with a heterogeneous texture? measuring at 1284080mm. cyst on cervix also. had pelvic pain 3 years.

Accepted Answer

Uterus: By the measurements your uterus is certainly enlarged. One cause is fibroid tumors. These are easily seen on ultrasound and would have been mentioned on your report. The combination of the pain and the enlargement suggests that you might have adenomyosis, a non-cancerous condition. An MRI might be helpful in diagnosing this.

Question 2

what causes a shortened cervix?

Accepted Answer

Short cervix: The most common cause is pregnancy. It does not cause a problem otherwise. If your cervix is too thin too soon in pregnancy, you are at risk for preterm labor and will need evaluation and treatment. We usually do not know that a cervix will become too thin until it happens during pregnancy or if it happened during a previous pregnancy.

Question 3

what causes a woman's cervix to close?

Accepted Answer

Cervix: I assume you are talking about after birth.  It is a combination of the uterus contracting, prolactin, and the lack of a baby contracting or pushing on it.

Question 4

what causes cervix to be low and soft?

Accepted Answer

Ovulation: A woman's cervix can become low and soft during the time of ovulation. A woman's cervix can become soft when she is pregnant.

Question 5

what are the causes of a tilted cervix?

Accepted Answer

Depends .: A tilted cervix could just be a normal anatomical variant. Sometimes it can also be associated with endometriosis. It can also be related to the presence if large fibroids.

Question 6

what kind of injury causes a tilted cervix?

Accepted Answer

Retroverted uterus: Having a retroverted uterus does not cause an injury to the body. It might cause some pain during sexual relations depending on position etc. Retroverted uterus can be caused by normal pelvic variation, adehesions, endometriosis, multiple surgeries, fibroid uterus etc.

Question 7

what causes a tilted cervix? how can you fix it?

Accepted Answer

Probably normal.: A tilted cervix (or uterus) is just describing what the position of these organs is. It is not abnormal and does not need to be fixed. Some are tilted forward, some backward, and some right in the middle. One position is not better than the other. It is the way you were born. No worries!

Question 8

what is the underlying cause of fluid in the cervix?

Accepted Answer

Cervical fluid: Not quite sure what you mean by "fluid in the cervix",but the cervix does secrete mucous from the mucous glands in the outer layer of the cervical lining.  Hope this helps.

Question 9

what causes the cervix to close up tightly in perimenopausel women?

Accepted Answer

Cervical stenosis: Is the medical term for the cervix to be tightly closed in any woman.  It is more common in women who have not had kids, or in peri or postmenopausal women and often related to decrease in estrogen or, on occasion, scarring from previous deliveries or procedures

Question 10

i found out yesterday that i have an aggravated/enlarged cervix. what can i do or what needs to be done? the symptoms and pain don't go away.

Accepted Answer

Seek Clarification: The terms enlarged and aggravated are not clear or medically sound. If aggravated means that you have cervicitis then that is treated with antibiotics and testing to determine the infectious cause. I am not sure why you would be told your cervix is enlarged. The size of the cervix is highly variable from person to person and not clinically relevant. It would not indicate a problem.
