How high does your cervix sit?[p=21, null, left]Did you know that the position of your cervix rises and falls according to your menstrual cycle? Knowing where your cervix sits during menstruation can also play a role in determining the right menstrual cup for you.
High Cervix – If your cervix is hard to reach or you cannot feel it at all then your cervix sits high during ovulation. A longer menstrual cup will likely be required.
Average Cervix – If your cervix is easy to reach but doesn’t sit low then your cervix height is average. The good news for you is that you will be fine with most lengths of menstrual cup.
Low Cervix – If you find that your cervix sits just inside of your vagina (roughly an inch or so) then you have a low cervix and will need to choose a shorter cup
[p=21, null, left]You can determine where your cervix sits by inserting a clean finger inside your vagina to find it. Slowly move your finger to the back of your vagina, past the pelvic bone and what can only be described as an “empty space”. The cervix is a round nub with a decline in the middle. During menstrual bleeding the cervix should feel like the tip of your nose.[p=21, null, left]You many wish to measure your cervix height a couple of days across your period as it may not sit in exactly the same location each day.
