Tilted Cervix? (PIOG)

I had an HSG done last friday and the tech had a hard time getting the catheter in my cervix because he said it was tilted. I didn't realize what he was saying because I was trying to focus on my breathing so I wouldn't pass out. But this concerns me. Do you think it was tilted because where I'm at in my cycle or do you think it's tilted all the time? None of the doctors who have done my paps have ever brought this up but perhaps I should bring it up to my RE. Maybe this is why I'm not getting pregnant.

definetly bring it up to your RE's attention. Hopefully you are fine but I think your RE needs to know all the details
Good luck to you

I had a trainer years ago, told me that i had a tilted pelvis ( which i would assume means my cervix is a bit tilted) and that it can affect me while ttc.... i've always had that in the back of my mind! Interesting.....

My GYN's told me a long time ago that mine is tilted. It pushes on my bladder so when I am laying down I really feel I need to pee!
I have some friends who's are tilted too so I don't think it is super uncommon.
That is part of the reason they do a "test run" too so when they get in there with the embryos or sperm they have a map in place (or that is what my RE told me).

Certainly mention it to your RE, but a tilted uterus (which then makes the cervix either appear "high" or "low" depending on which way your uterus tilts) is fairly common. Mine is tilted completely back, so it lays on my....never mind, you don't want to know. But my doc has never said this has any bearing on my ability (or inability) to conceive.

I was told a long time ago that I had a tilted cervix during a pap. But when I chaged obgyn no one ever brought it up again and my RE hasn't metioned it so maybe it can correct itself?!?

aaa12, the exact same thing happened to me. Told I had a tilted cervix during a pap and then noone has mentioned it since. I would bring it up with your RE.

i have the exact same thing only mine is tilted, bent and stenotic. it took almost 2 years for anyone to discover this until my RE did a lap/hyst surgery on me and told me that i have no chance of conceiving on my own so i am getting ready to start IVF. hopefully this is what it will take to get pg. definately tell your RE- have you had the lap surgery yet?

my best friend has a tilted cervix, and yes it can ake it more difficult to conceive, however, the doc told her that her best chances for conception would be on all fours as opposed to missionary... She now has beautiful twin girls. But, definately bri it up to your RE.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
