Why does the cervix become bigger? Under normal circumstances, the cervix is closed because it helps to prevent bacteria from entering the uterus. After the fetus is full-term, the cervix will gradually become soft, shorten and disappear, and the cervix will begin to expand.
The biparietal diameter of a full-term baby is generally above 9.3cm. In order to make the baby deliver smoothly, the uterine orifice will expand to 10 cm when the pregnant mother gives birth to the baby. If the fetal biparietal diameter is moderate and the elasticity of the cervix is good, postpartum recovery will be easier, but if the fetal biparietal diameter is large, the expansion of the cervix of the pregnant mother will be greater, and even face lateral incision or tear. Of course, most pregnant women who give birth naturally are cut sideways.
Under what circumstances will the postpartum cervix not recover smoothly? 1. Cervical inflammation, such as adnexitis and metritis. It is caused by improper postpartum care or other reasons. The myometrium of the uterus will proliferate, which will lead to cervical enlargement, especially during the puerperium. Because the baby is just born, his physique will decline, which will easily lead to various infections.
2. After multiple births, it takes about one year for the cervix to return to the pre-pregnancy state. If you are pregnant again without recovery, or if the uterus of multiple pregnancies is not fully recovered, the cervix will become larger.
3. Repeated abortion, when abortion, it is necessary to use a uterine dilator to expand the cervix, which may cause certain damage to the cervix.
4. Disease effects, such as uterine vascular diseases, ovarian dysfunction, functional uterine bleeding and other diseases will cause cervical enlargement.
Therefore, postpartum women must love themselves:
Have a good rest, don't make yourself too tired, let your body rest.
② Pay attention to personal hygiene. After leaving the hospital, clean the wound with the liquid medicine prepared by the doctor to prevent infection. Try to wear loose cotton underwear and keep the vulva dry.
3 it is forbidden to share the same room for one month after delivery. Pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness when sharing the same room to avoid infection.
④ Go to the hospital 42 days after delivery to check the recovery of uterus. It is best to check regularly afterwards.
⑤ Prevent the occurrence of various cervical diseases, so as not to cause infection and enlarge the cervix.
What should I do if my cervix is too big one year after delivery? Too big cervix has little effect and has no effect on the life of husband and wife. If there is nothing unusual, this situation does not need treatment. And if the cervix is just big, it will generally not affect pregnancy, but if it is serious, it may cause endometritis, tubal adhesion and blockage, leading to infertility, so you must see a doctor first. Drugs can be used for treatment, but drugs are not a panacea and not all cases are suitable.
If the cervix is pregnant, it will easily lead to premature delivery of the baby. It can be treated by surgery, that is, cervical cerclage. This operation mainly strengthens the cervix by suture.
If the pregnant mother has a large cervix, she must pay attention to communication with the doctor so that the doctor can take corresponding treatment measures.
