The function of the uterus is that the endometrium periodically thickens and falls off to form menstruation, and embryos and fetuses are conceived during pregnancy.
The uterus may produce cervical inflammation, cervical tumor, endometriosis, adenomyosis and abnormal uterine development. Pay attention to the health care of uterus in daily life, and seek medical advice in time when there are symptoms such as irregular menstruation, abnormal leucorrhea and lower abdominal pain. In addition, it is very necessary to have regular gynecological examinations.
Location of uterus:
The uterus is located in the center of the pelvic cavity, with bladder in front, rectum behind, vagina at the lower end, fallopian tubes and ovaries on both sides. The fundus of uterus is located below the pelvic entrance, and the external opening of cervix is located slightly above the level of ischial spine.
When the bladder is empty, the normal position of the adult uterus is slightly forward leaning and forward bending. The normal position of uterus depends on the support of uterine ligament, pelvic muscles and fascia. The destruction or dysfunction of pelvic tissue structure caused by any reason can lead to uterine prolapse.
