I have been trying to have a baby for the last year and would like to know if this can make it more difficult to conceive and if it has any other health implications. Picture your forearm and hand as representing the body of your uterus and your cervix. If the uterus is mobile, there are generally no symptoms associated with the position of the uterus.
Most positional differences are anatomic variations that occur from woman to woman.
Normally, the uterus is in a position of anteversion. The orientation of a woman's uterus, as determined at birth, has no relation to fertility in and of itself. This may prevent the sperm from swimming into the cervical canal to reach a released ovum for fertilization. Additionally, there are certain conditions that may cause a sharp retroflexion of the uterus. These include endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease and uterine fibroids .
