A member asked:
Does the cervix dilate throughout your cycle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very slightly: There are very small changes in the size of the opening of the cervix during the menstrual cycle. This small amount of dilation at the time of ovulation when the cervix is slightly more open, is much less "dilation" than occurs in labor (up to 10 cm).
