Question 1

what does a bulky cervix mean?

Accepted Answer

It may be abnormal: It may contain a lesion.

Question 2

what does a curved cervix mean?

Accepted Answer

Normal: A curved cervix probably indicates your cervix has a bend in it, either pointing to the front or the back. All of that is normal, and should not be causing any health problems.

Question 3

what does a high soft open cervix mean?

Accepted Answer

Close to labor: Those specific words describe the qualities of the cervix, the entrance to the womb/uterus, during the last part of the pregnancy. "soft" means that the cervix is ripe or ready for labor, which is good if you are near your due date, "open" is also good if you are near, it means labor can be imminent, "high" means either long cervix or high presenting part of the baby. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Question 4

what does it mean if i have a tear on cervix?

Accepted Answer

Delivery?: It's coming for there to be a tear on the cervix after delivery, but are you speaking about a tear on the cervix when you haven't  a just delivered a child?  That could be due to trauma secondary to intercourse. Or it could mean the cervix  is friable due to infection. An examine your doctor seems warranted.

Question 5

what does it mean when your cervix is low & hard?

Accepted Answer

Cervix: Depends on the context. The cervix typically is said to feel like the end of your nose. When pregnant, the cervix becomes softer. The cervix (and uterus) sometimes are lower after birthing children, a condition called prolapse.

Question 6

what does it mean to have a slightly curved cervix?

Accepted Answer

Probably nothing: The uterus is composed of muscle and collagen, both are somewhat flexible. The uterus is attached inside you, but is still a bit mobile, while the cervix is somewhat fixed in place by it's attachment to the vagina.  When the uterus leans forward or back (or side), then the cervix will be curved a bit.  Essentially, whatever the position of the uterus and cervix inside you, it is normal for you.

Question 7

what do differences in the position of the cervix mean?

Accepted Answer

Are you pregnant? : If you are not pregnant then it means nothing. If you are pregnant it still basically means nothing although a midposition cervix  occurs when people are in labor.

Question 8

i was told i have a tilted cervix, what does that mean?

Accepted Answer

Normal: Some women has it ; it is normal.

Question 9

cervix very squishy inside what does it mean? baby coming?

Accepted Answer

It means softening: In late pregnancy it does happen.

Question 10

what does it mean if cervix is low, hard, slightly closed and wet

Accepted Answer

Not much: Cervical position and consistency is subjective, variable and not particularly relevant. It varies by age, number of pregnancies and timing in the menstrual cycle. It’s not something you need to be paying attention to unless you are in labor. If you are experiencing vaginal discharge then schedule a visit for testing.
