Take a Peek!
Each gallery showcases a series of photos of different women’s cervices. There are no external genitalia visible in any of the photos, but they are all taken by using a speculum to open the vagina to view the cervix. Please view at your discretion.
Please browse the galleries by clicking the images below. They are organized by category and an * indicates women who have given birth vaginally.

Please check back regularly as I post photos of more women’s cervices as volunteers send them in.


i think this site is amazing! its amazing that we grow up not really being taught or edged towards taking notice of our bodies. things like this should be taught in science at later stages of school!

Would or have you ever posted a photo gallery of a woman in labor? Obviously it would be hard to get a woman to be still to take those pictures (unless she had an epidural, I guess). I’d like to see what that looks like.

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing!

sounds like a period to me. sometimes they can be scary heavy.
and the cervix does open for periods
[Reply]
I am 40 years old…I have had 2 kids…
I have been starting to have issues with my cervix lowering…
I did some physical therapy in 2011, but it still wants to nearly come out…
I have even seen it sticking out of me in the past few months…
I am getting concerned that i may need a hysterectomy soon.
[Reply]
I just had. HSG to see if I had fluid in my tubes. The Dr saw that I did not but that I have the tinest cervix he has ever seen. He wants me to have it dialated to relieve my horrible menstral cramps. What would this procedure entail? Will it stay dialated? What is “normal” dialation? Have you ever heard of this? I do not have cysts, fibroids or anything else. He said that the cervix is so small its hard for my menstral fluid/matter to pass thru causing extreme cramping.

have you had kids?
i have a ton of interest in your small cervix diagnosis.
i think you should see a mifwife for a second opinion. it just feels off to me.

thank you for this informative site; I am looking for photos/info re post cervicectomy vagina to clarify what constitutes normal appearance and coloration, keeping in mind that I’m now 70. thank you in advance,
[Reply]
I also found this site to absolutely fascinating! Thank you so much for posting these pictures, I have always wondered what the cervix looked like, very cool!
[Reply]
Hello, I think what you’re doing is fascinating. Could you manage to get a picture of a vaginal canal post total-hysterectomy? I had a total hysterectomy and have wondered what it looks like now I don’t have a cervix. Thanks and keep up the great work!
[Reply]
I never knew it looked like that.
you learn something new everyday. Im 16, and they should teach girls my age more about this stuff
[Reply]
I really really appreciate these photos, it’s been a great learning experience for me.
However, I have one request: Would you consider posting photos of cervical mucous that is collected on fingers? Most women who check their cervical mucous (while trying to conceive) do so by reaching in with a finger or two and check the consistency by stretching between the fingers. While it is somewhat helpful to see the CM at the cervix, it would be even more useful to see it more clearly on the fingers and to see how much it stretches.
Love this site, it’s amazing.

Hey there! Great pics. Should women get pap smears before or after sex? Thanks

before. semen or chemicals from a condom could throw off the results.
also midcycle or fertile time is best as that is when more of it is accessible

Im 15 and I’ve always been curious about my body, because i started my period young. I am not sexually active… I’ve never had sex before. .When I started “exploring” inside I noticed a stick-like thing maybe an inch back in my vagina. I couldn’t feel myself touching it. I know it’s a part of me but i don’t know what it is. I’ve asked my mum and she said that it’s probably my cervix. Whatever it is, its longer at the bottom than anywhere else. On the very end of it (tward the front) there is like a flattened knob that has two peices and the one on top is… longer? than the one on the bottom. Can someone tell me what it is?

wonderful! i did a facebook share

These pictures are for young women. I am 53. I had a hysterectomy when I was 37 years old, this was done in China. I am Chinese. They removed my uterus, and half of my left ovary. six years ago while visiting my mother in China I had an examination and they burned off some cysts in my vagina which was extremely painful and has psychologically has ruined my sex life, because I am so scared to have this done again. My husband said he thinks that I should not have had the cysts, polyps? removed in the first place, for they are normal? I would like pictures of a normal or abnormal cervix for my age group.

I just went to my gynecologist and they told me that I have an ectopic cervix. I really don’t understand what an ectopic cervix is and they can’t explain it to me further because of the language barrier since I am in vietnam now. I keep on looking for it in the internet but I just couldn’t find any. The results would always go to ectopic pregnancy. Do anybody knows hat an ectopic cervix is or what is the other term for that? ThanksM

I’m guessing they said ‘ectropic’ cervix:
