<HR> <H2 id=post-58 title="Permanent Link: Photos of My Cycling Cervix">Photos of My Cycling Cervix</H2>
I am a 25 year old woman who has never given birth. My intention with this project was to better understand my cycle and the changes in my cervix throughout the month. As a doula and student midwife, I used this project to help me see how a cervix might look different throughout the cycle in the absence of vaginal infections and to understand speculum exams. You may notice on the right side of some photos, some jagged looking skin, which is the remnants of my hymenal ring. My os (opening to the cervix) is round because I have never given birth; the os becomes more of a slit after childbirth.

Each photo was taken at approx 10:00 pm every day starting the first day of my menstrual cycle. I re-used a plastic speculum (order one here) and macro function of normal digital camera (and a very talented boyfriend with a headlamp). For the duration of this project, we used condoms as our birth control method so as not to introduce semenal fluid into the photoshoot. I did not use tampons or mooncups during my bleeding time either.

This cycle I photographed is of normal length for me, about 33 days. The diagram above is for a 28 day cycle. My cycle�s follicular phase (variable number of days preovulation) lasts until about day 20 or 21. My fertile phase lasts from days 13 to 21 with ovulation on day 20. My luteal (postovulation) phase is 13 days long (12-16 days is the norm and is not variable in a normal cycle).



Above is a graph of my basal body temperature for this cycle. As you can see, after ovulation on about day 20, my temperature began to rise due to the heat-inducing hormone progesterone produced by the corpus luteum. This temperature shift signifies that ovulation has already occurred. Check out more information about the Fertility Awareness Method of birth control to learn more about cyclical temperature changes.

I also tracked the depth/movement of my cervix in my vagina. These gradual shifts are not really distinguishable in the photos, but was a tangible change as the depth I needed to reach a finger inside to touch my cervix varied slightly each day. I also noted the firmness of the cervix and openness of the os that was again a change I was feeling with my finger.

My uterus is tipped backward (retroflexed), so you may notice that the cervix is pointing upwards in some photos. This is an anatomical variation that is present in about 20-30% of the population, and is most often a genetic trait. It means that the body of the uterus lies more towards my back than over my bladder.

May this site be educational for you and may you feel inspired to discover more about your body�
