The cervix or cervix uteri (Latin: neck of the uterus) is the lower part of the uterus in the human female reproductive system.
A short cervix means the length of your cervix (also called cervical length) is shorter than normal. You may find out that you have a short cervix during an ultrasound that you get as part of your regular prenatal care. Prenatal care is medical care you get during pregnancy.
