How to view the anterior and posterior positions of the uterus

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, retroversion of the uterus has two types: retroflexion and retroversion with retroflexion. When the longitudinal axis of the uterus remains unchanged, and the entire uterus inclines backward, it is called retroversion. If the uterus is retroverted and forms a sharp angle at the junction of the uterine body and cervix, it is then called retroversion with retroflexion. The former is more common, while the latter is less common. Common causes include ligament relaxation, damage to the pelvic floor diaphragm, and injury to the base of the broad ligament due to multiple deliveries.
