A member asked:
Do your cervix has to be open in order to conceive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No and yes: A dilated cervix in early pregnancy is not normal, but there has to be an opening of some sort for the sperm to get into the uterus to fertilize the egg in order to get pregnant. So in short there has to be an opening to get pregnant but physically and clinically the cervix is closed.
