Description
The cervix is a neck of tissue that connects the vaginal canal and the uterus (which the cervix acts as an orifice to). The cervix appears as a plump, circular, "doughnut" at the back of the vagina visible when the vaginal opening of the vulva is spread wide open, however it is often hard to make out without proper lighting, and/or the use of a speculum.
