A member asked:
Should i depend on cervix position to check for ovulation?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Definitly not: Cervical position is almost completely unreliable. Unless you are actively in labor there is no reason to check your own cervix as it will not help you. Try a home ovulation kit if you are trying to conceive.

No: Checking your cervix is not a reliable way of checking for ovulation; i wouldn't waste your time.
