So you know for sure that if you put your finger into your cervix and you went through the os you would have pain? You couldn't go through the os without knowing something happened. This other dr on your site was horrible and said you may not know and you could cause an abortion. I can't imagine not knowing you did something to your body without having pain. I read how closed it is and I agree with you that I would have pain if I went through the os and I would know right away I did something and the pain would be pretty severe

You are 100%sure that putting finger through os would cause pain and if I didn't have pain then I didn't go through os so I definitely did not cause my miscarriage. And the pain would be immediate if I went through the is os ? You are telling me something you are completely sure of so I can let this thought go. It's just not possible to put your finger through and not have pain. Very tightly closed

You can say 100% that it is painful to go through the os and I would have immediate pain and if not then 100% I could not cause a miscarriage. There is pain always when you go through os at 5 weeks because area is tightly closed and if forced open there would be 100% sure pain present

i never had pain on examination but did you ever put your finger in someone's cervix and she had pain? Was it impossible to go any further in the cervix due to closed area or would it have been impossible without real force and pain. Please answer and please say 100% sure that you could not put your finger through the os without pain. Please say 100% I need to know that if I put my finger into the cervix with force I would have to have pain if I had gone through the os or done anything wrong. Please tell me 100% sure that it would not be possible to go through the os and not have pain probably severe also when the finger up in there isn't there a plug of protection and it's closed tightly so you can't disturb it without creating lots of pain

Yes,you can stop worrying.Everyone who goes through os into cervix will have pain and os is closed.There are two os external and internal os.When you go through vagina you will get external os first which is closed. It will definetly cause pain in my opinion 100 percent.

So I could put my finger into the cervix but the closed area is above and I did not go through that because it would be difficult and cause pain because it is closed. But my finger was able to go in some but not far enough to do damage because I didn't feel any pain
