Question 1

hi, i am parveen kawsar. my age is 59. i have tested my pelvis & found cervix is hypertrophied(31.2ml), mcc-493ml & prv-39ml?

Accepted Answer

Gynecologist: As it turns out the best doctor for your complaint is going to be your Gynecologist or primary doctor. Depending on your medical history and findings they can explain why your cervix is enlarged and if they need to do a biopsy or procedure called Colposcopy. Good luck.

Question 2

what does a hypertrophied, hypervascular and friable cervix indicate? can it be chronic cervicitis?

Accepted Answer

Cervicitis: Yes this can be chronic and may well be caused by hpv. Discuss this and the possible consequences with your gynecologist and consider getting the vaccine.

Question 3

how do you feel your cervix?

Accepted Answer

Self Cervical Exam: Many women find it difficult to fell their own cervix.  You simply need to gently place you finger in the vagina until you feel a firm circular area at the back of the vagina.  That is the cervix.

Question 4

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 5

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 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 r the chanced of cervix dialating early agin ?

Accepted Answer

Possible: When the cervix dilates early, starting before 24 weeks, the chance of it happening again is perhaps 30%. However it is quite variable depending on the cause. You will need to be followed closely with next pregnancy.

Question 9

where is my cervix ?

Accepted Answer

See attached : This link will take you to the ACOG patient info on your first pelvic exam, and has a drawing of your internal anatomy:  http://m.acog.org/Patients/FAQs/Your-First-Gynecologic-Visit-Especially-for-Teens

Question 10

why is my cervix so low?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can evaluate: "low" means different things to different people. A primary care doctor or an ob-gyn doctor can examine to see what the patient means by low. Plus, the doctor will ask about other symptoms with the female genitals, and will want to know if "low" is a new position, or is the way the uterus/cervix has always been.
