The cervix is naturally closed with a plug of mucous that is released, or thinned, before ovulation due to hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle. In other instances cervical cerclage is a small surgical procedural used for cervical incompetence in pregnant woman where the amniotic sac sags down through the cervix.
