A member asked:

Common 2 feel ur own cervix or uncommon? i doubt prolapse, what am i feeling if not cervix? found 2 bumps on what i thought was my cervix, if vaginal tumors wouldn't recent colonoscopy catch this ?

Yes and No: It is not uncommon for the cervix to be felt by a person. Colonoscopy only examines the colon and not the vagina or cervix.

Probably normal: It is possible to feel your cervix, even without prolapse. If you've had vaginal deliveries, that will change the shape of your cervix. Also, you can have benign mucous cysts, called nabothian cysts, on the cervix. If you've recently had a colposcopy then whatever your feeling is likely benign. Hope this helps.
