Is it weird the cervix chat is some what comforting and hearing others experiences kinda normalises/validates what is often a ducking mare of an experience for so many?
I knew what a cervix looked like but had never thought to describe it as that Hotes - but it’s so true!
Feeling seen with the tilt too - my womb is slightly tilted and have been told by some medical peeps that my cervix is too but others say it’s fine. Had a really lovely Dr tell me once there is no such thing as a normal text book cervix/womb etc as they vary as much as we all do. Also had a case of the great disappearing cervical polyp the other year - it literally appeared to play hide and seek depending on the dr looking
I tend to get an embarrassing leg shake when having Gynae stuff and have been told on more than one occasion to ‘let go’ of the speculum as my default is to literally clench up. Not sure why they really bother saying ‘relax’ as it has the opposite effect.
Do you think the judge at the court case will be like ‘right hands up the one with the clenchy cervix, the one with the tilty cervix, the toot toot cervix’ and so on? Imagine the various tangents we’ve had on the MT - it’d add years to the court case!
