A member asked:

I've been on birth control for almost three weeks. my cervix is low and seems to be open. what does that mean? (i haven't had sex unprotected)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The birth control: Has nothing to do with the position of your cervix, it sounds like you have some uterine prolapse , your gyn can do an exam and find out because if u do you may need surgery to fix the problem.
