These terms refer to the position of the uterus in the pelvis. The italics below refer to the conversation I imagine having with you, if we had hours to chat about this specific subject.This information will focus on the retro uterus: retroverted and retroflexed, to be more specific. And I can't help but delve fully into the folds of, um, er, the research.
Why? Because the more I looked into retro (tilted) uteruses, the more information I found. For a variety of reasons I have ultimately assessed their uterus, and found its position to be a possible culprit of their discomfort.This is a long post. Enjoy :) Did you know that your uterus is not always in the same position? And not necessarily in the same position as the uterus-owner sitting next to you at the coffee shop? And, after pregnancy, it could settle into a completely different position than before? And, your provider, as well as you and your partner, could be well-informed as to where your uterus is and what trouble it might be giving you? Well, welcome to the know.I have had a number of women coming in for infertility, for pain with intercourse (dyspareunia), for IUD insertions or removals, and with pain during menses (dysmenorrhea).
Don't let knowledge about the lady-bits rest in the hands of providers. This post falls into the category of I-think-you-should-be-empowered-in-the-knowledge-about-your-own-body.
