What else can I help you with?
You are 11 weeks pregnant with slight cramping on your left side is it normal for the cervix to feel open?
As far as I know, if your cervix is open, a miscarriage is inevitable. I could be wrong, but that's the way it was explained to me. I've had one miscarriage in the past.
Your doctor wants to open your cervix while pregnant is this safe?
Yup!
You are pregnant-5 weeks your cervix is still open?
You can't see your cervix. I'm not sure why you would think it's open. Have you put your finger in your vagina to feel it? If you do that, it should feel soft like your lips if you're pregnant. If you aren't pregnant it should feel hard like the tip of your nose.
What if your cervix is up and hard and open?
If you are not pregnant, and not on your period, then it probably means you are ovulating. The cervix opens up when you are ovulating, and it becomes 'slimier' to help aid the travel of the sperm. If you are pregnant, then it just means your are pregnant. If you are not pregnant, and not ovulating, then it means you are about to have your period.
How do you know if your cervix is closed?
The doctor will tell you when you have an exam and then you will go in for an outpatient surgery to open it.
How long after giving birth does your cervix stay open?
After giving birth, the cervix typically begins to close gradually, but it may remain slightly open for several days to weeks. In general, it can take about 6 weeks for the cervix to return to its pre-pregnancy state, but this can vary among individuals. Monitoring by healthcare providers during postpartum check-ups helps ensure proper recovery.
If your cervix is open 1 cm what does that mean?
it all depends if you have had children before and how far along you are. i am currently 13 weeks pregnant and can fit one finger in my cervix which means i amm 1 cm dialated. i am on my fifth pregnancy and it is normal for my cervix to be like this as it never returns to its same shape after childbirth and will always be slightly open. just because your outer cervix feels open it does not mean you are open inside as your mucus plug seals it all up. i would keep an eye if it is your first pregnancy as some women suffer from incompetent cervix which causes the cervix to dialate too early. symptoms of this is increased pelvic pressure with or without period cramps or spotting. to ease your worries i can say that this is very rare and when it does happen it generally happens between 14 to 20 weeks. good luck to you
Do pregnant women vaginal open?
The vagina is like before pregnancy but the cervix, the opening to the uterus, is closed by a mucus plug.
Is it normal for cervix to be low and not pregnant?
Yes, it is normal for the cervix to be low and firm when a woman is not pregnant. The position and texture of the cervix can change throughout the menstrual cycle due to hormonal fluctuations. During menstruation or in the early follicular phase, the cervix may be lower and less open. However, if you have concerns about changes in cervical position or other symptoms, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional.
Is it possible for the cervix to be open during early pregnancy when you are only 5 weeks and 6 days If yes what causes this and is it a sign of an impending miscarriage?
it is called an incompetent cervix, it can be caused by damaged during a previous birth or a previous surgury on the cervix. and from the cervix bein open it can cause a miscarriage, so that wouldn't happen you would need a cerclage which is a procedure in which the doctor will sew the cervix closed with sutures to reinforce the cervix and prevent it from dilating to early... hopefully this would help you because it sure helped me
Is your cervix open or closed if pregnant?
Closed. It is one of the ways your body helps to protect your baby. The cervix only opens slightly to allow the sperm in during ovulation, then if pregnancy occurs it closes and what is known as a "Mucus Plug" fills in the rest of the gap. As the woman gets closer to delivery, one of the signs of early labor is when she loses her mucus plug.. that occurs when the cervix is begining to dilate. At full dilation the cervix is open only 10 cm. There is one caveat to this, sometimes the cervix is "weak" or "incompetent" when it begins to dialate BEFORE approx 36 weeks. In this instance there is a procedure available called Cervical Cerclage. It is when the cervix is stitched shut to prevent miscarriage or early delivery of the baby. for more info on this procedure please cut and paste this link. http://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancycomplications/cervicalcerclage.html
Where is the cervix when 9 months pregnant?
In general, it is in the same place it has always been. It is at the bottom of the uterus. It will dialate and become more open as the time for the baby to be born nears. The baby will pass through the cervix to the birth canal.
