Disclosure of the cervix - what you need to know for every woman

Every girl and woman knows well how her sexual system is located and how her system works. Few questions are caused by organs such as the ovaries, uterus, vagina, etc. But no one thinks about the purpose of the cervix . Although it is she who takes one of the important roles in bearing, conceiving and giving birth to children. An experienced doctor, just looking at her, can accurately determine whether a woman gave birth or not, whether she did abortions, how soon she would wait for the next menstruation, and with confidence in 95% diagnose pregnancy.

So what is the cervix?

The uterus is an unpaired female muscular organ, it is in it that the human embryo develops. The organ is located in the middle of the pelvic cavity . Gradually passes from below to the cervix.

The cervix is an organ that looks like a connecting tube that unites the vagina and the uterus. Its shape, in most cases, depends on whether the woman gave birth or not. The length of this "tube" is about 3-4 centimeters, and the width - about 3 centimeters.

Changes during pregnancy and cervical dilatation before childbirth

During the period of pregnancy, the cervix changes and experiences many changes. Before pregnancy, it is light pink in color, and during pregnancy acquires a bluish tinge. Color change is associated with arisen dense vascular network and blood supply.

If the initial terms revealed abnormalities in the development or disease of the cervix, then with timely treatment begun, the pregnancy can be saved. The fact is that premature opening of the cervix is very dangerous. It is this that causes a spontaneous abortion - a miscarriage. In order to avoid miscarriage, with diseases that cause the cervix to open before the term, doctors apply various ways to "strengthen" the neck, up to the application of seams on it, which are removed before the birth.

By the end of pregnancy, the cervix changes, becomes softer, and "ripens." Thus, the female body is preparing for childbirth. Before their onset, the cervix smoothly passes into the center of the small pelvis, its length decreases from 3 centimeters to 10 millimeters. The canal gradually opens to 6-10 cm. The transition of this cervical canal into the lower segment becomes smooth.

At the end of pregnancy, before the onset of labor, the expansion of the internal pharynx and short fights with a second sensation of pain presuppose the onset of labor. At this time, the cervix dilates gradually and eventually it has a diameter of about 10 centimeters. It is this pronounced action of the neck that allows the fetus to exit through the birth canal.

It happens that the opening of the cervix is not enough and it is not enough to pass the baby, so the organ breaks. This gap can happen not only for this reason, but also because of rapid labor, a large fetus, because of births with weak early attempts, etc.

Therefore, if the mother has already drained water and the neck opening is not yet enough for the birth of the child and / or weak or there are no contractions, then usually in such cases the doctors decide to stimulate the labor activity. To stimulate labor activity, special medical preparations are used.

A woman, if you listen to your feelings, it's easy to feel the opening of the cervix, the symptoms are the following:

  • Unpleasant sensations in the location of the neck, as if instant tingling with a needle.
  • Begins to "whine" the back (waist), hips.
  • Pain in the vagina, similar to spasms.

After giving birth, the doctor is obliged to inspect the patient, check her cervix. If he detects ruptures, he will put seams. Stitches on the cervix are usually superimposed with special bioresorbable threads.
