What does your cervix feel like if your pregnant?

Q. If you've felt your cervix during a pregnancy, what does it feel like?
I know it's a little tmi, but can you describe it?

A. You check your cervix all you want (just wash your hands first!) Some people's are difficult to get to, they're pretty far back. That said, a pregnant cervix gets like pretty hard cartilage, like the tip of your nose.

Original Question

If your cervix is closed during pregnancy, why do some have leukhorrea?

Q. I've read a lot that the cervix is supposed to remain firm and closed during pregnancy. If that's true, then why do some women have extra vaginal discharge, such as leukhorrea, when pregnant if their cervix is closed?

A. it isn't the cervix that produces the discharge,its the vagina itself.the vagina is self cleaning (the discharge is the way it does it).an increase in discharge while pregnant is completely normal

leukorrhea is a different thing - it can be a sign of infection and this should always be investigated

Original Question

Is there anything they can do about a torn cervix during pregnancy?

Q. The first doctor I went to tore my cervix and it has bled during my whole pregnancy. Is there anything they can do for it until I have the baby? I am about 5 months pregnant now and it just gets annoying bleeding off and on.

A. I would certainly be looking into doing something legal about this Doctor that tore your cervix. I have had 2 children, and nor have I ever even heard that a Doctor could tear your cervix.

Ask them to stitch your cervix. That is about the only option you have.
