Hi I had a polyp removed today the doctor said it was benign and he also took a biopsy of the cervix tissue. My pap test came back negative. So what was the real reason for the biopsy? Was it to make sure everything was okay. I am 52 have gone through menopause 4 years ago. He also prescribed Ciprofloxacin to take for infections is that the proper antibiotic to use for this biopsy? Please help me to further understand. Was this the right procedure. I am on Medicaid if that helps, was this procedure unnecessary.

Chelsea,
Most people can feel their cervix. Using the pointer and index fingers, reach inside the vaginal canal and feel around. A non pregnant cervix often feels like the end of your nose. The cervix is the only protruding structure inside the body and should be (relatively) easy to find. Often putting a foot up on the toilet or bathtub helps, squatting is also useful for bringing the cervix into a reachable place. If you need more instructions for finding a cervix try http://www.sisterzeus.com/cervob.htm.

And if you are feeling really froggy, try using a speculum and visualize your cervix, it’s good stuff.

many women who were exposed to the drug DES when they were inutero can indeed have two vaginas. Usually it is one vagina and two cervices…and they can even have two wombs etc. I am a DES baby, but fortunately I donot have this issue. Many people exposed to this drug can have small hands etc. The drug was used to prevent the baby from being aborted during a difficult pregnancy. They stopped using this drug in the early to mid ’60′s. Women exposed to DES have a higher risk of cervical cancer and giving birth to stillborm babies. This was a shock to me when we tried to get pregnant. Once I learned this I did research to find out what it was all about. Knowledge is power. So let’s all stay as knowledgeable as we can…

Hi Nicole,
Some women have something called a bicornuate uterus, during the fetal period when a female fetus is forming the uterus is in two pieces, as the fetus develops the septum gradually rises and makes one uterus two tubes and two ovaries, in some women that septum doesnt disappear and some women can have two uteruses two cervix’s and rarely two vaginas (but it does happen)… Women with an incomplete septum have a heart shaped uterus, have a higher incidence of miscarriage and also have a higher chance of breech presentation…and yes emmy i have seen and felt two cervix on the one woman…so wierd to feel.
p.s sorry if u dont understand my spelling im in Australia

I do use my longest finger, especially during my fertile phase when my cervix is farther back in my vagina. Trying to reach it while you are in a squat position can help.

I am trying to see what I can do naturally. I am doing acupuncture, and getting plenty of rest and exercise. I have also stopped eating all grains and sugar and see much less bleeding from the polyp (see paleo diet). Good luck on your path to healing.
