Is the cervix normally tilted?

Question - (30 March 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 30 March 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 18-21, anonymous writes:

Hello, I was just doing a self examination to see if I could reach my cervix with my finger and I could but it seems to be tilted to one side, and rather close to my vaginal opening. (2 inches in) I'm wondering if these things will make it hard to make love, or would a penis push my cervix back ?

thanks.

Annalisa agony auntYou're perfectly normal. Remember that in examining yourself, you're likely to crouch and shrink the length of your vagina!

When you are aroused and when you squeeze your vagina, the cervix rises, allowing more space for penetration.

LazyGuy agony auntYou really should consult an anatomy drawing for this, it would show that it is indeed at an angle. The vagina is tilted backwards, and the uturus is connected to the top at an almost 90 degree angle. The cervix is therefor not at the top of the vagina but to the side of the top. Really google female anatomy because a picture is worth a thousand words.

2 inches seems a bit short, but could be, dont forget that the vagina like the penis enlarges during arousal (you get deeper). Also note that just because the average penis is 5 inches not all of that actually goes inside.

I think the general idea is that the penis slides past the cervix, not into it, if it even gets that deep.

Never heard of a woman having to short a vagina.
