Its structure includes both an internal os (the opening to the uterus) and an external os (the opening to the vagina).

Where should your cervix be 2 days before your period?
The position and feel of the cervix can change throughout the menstrual cycle. Generally, two days before your period, the cervix is typically lower in the vagina, firmer, and the opening (os) may be slightly open in women who have had children and closed in those who have not. Here's a brief overview of the typical cervical changes throughout the menstrual cycle: Menstrual Phase (Days 1-5): The cervix is low, firm, and the os is slightly open to allow menstrual blood to pass. Follicular Phase (Days 6-14): After menstruation, the cervix starts to rise, becomes softer, and the os gradually opens as ovulation approaches. Ovulation (Around Day 14): The cervix is high, soft, and the os is open to facilitate the passage of sperm. Luteal Phase (Days 15-28): After ovulation, the cervix lowers and becomes firmer. The os starts to close if fertilization has not occurred. So, about two days before your period (typically part of the luteal phase), you can expect your cervix to be low and firm, and the os to be more closed if there is no pregnancy. However, it’s important to note that cervical positions can vary from person to person, and not everyone will experience the exact same changes.
