Question 7

i have a tiny hard bump on my cervix right near the opening.

Accepted Answer

May be normal: Most likely this is a Nabothian Cyst, a mucous filled cyst that can travel down from the upper cervix to the surface in young women. However, you should see your doctor for a pap smear and visual inspection of the cervix to be sure and alleviate any anxiety you may be having regarding this finding.

Question 8

what should the opening of my cervix feel like? mine is striated with a circle of assorted elevations that form a circle. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Varies widely: The cervix will vary a lot from person to person just like your nose, ears and any other body part. No two will look or feel exactly the same. It is great that you are interested in knowing your body. Next time you schedule a visit ask your doctor to walk you through in detail what they feel and see so you can learn even more.

Question 9

help i just noticed today that i have a small very little bump near the opening part of my cervix , it's painless and didn't give me any discomfort  ?

Accepted Answer

Bumps on cervix: Nabothian cysts are small painless harmless bumps on the cervix. Other abnormalities include polyps or tumors or inflammation from herpes (this can be painless if it is only on the cervix). Your doctor will visualize this when doing a PAP smear.

Question 10

my husband says the top part of my cervix has a piece of skin hanging down over the opening! he says you can slightly move the skin to see the opening?

Accepted Answer

Seriously?: How is your husband seeing your cervix: it is an internal pelvic organ. Does he have a speculum or an endoscope? He cannot see it any better than he can see your  vocal chords.
