The cervix is a small, doughnut-shaped organ located at the top of the vaginal canal, and forming the opening of the uterus. During childbirth, the cervix dilates – meaning the doughnut hole opens up – to allow the baby to exit the uterus, into the birth canal. The cervix also dilates a tiny bit during menstruation, to allow a woman to shed her uterine lining as period blood.
