A member asked:
Does checking your cervix too much dry it out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
???: No...but why are you checking your cervix so much? Its very difficult to check your own cervix. Most women do not know what it is they are feeling when they try. They often misinterpret what they think they are feeling. It won't " dry out", but I'm certain you can become irritated and possibly even introduce infection.
