Cervix is Low, Hard & Closed
After your menstrual period you will begin to start checking your cervical position.  At this time the position of your cervix will be low within your body and easily reached with your fingertips.  The opening to your cervix will be closed - feeling like a small slit or a tiny hole.  The feel of your cervix will be rather hard to the touch.  It will feel almost like touching the tip of your nose.   During this phase (the first phase within your cycle) you are considered infertile.

Cervix is High, Soft & Open
Right before ovulation occurs the amount of estrogen increases within your body.  This causes your cervix to rise.  When checking your cervical position, you will notice that it will move from the lowest point to mid and then extremely high.  At the highest point it may be difficult to reach your cervix with your fingertips.  The opening of your cervix increases making the slit or tiny hole much larger.  The feel of your cervix is much softer now almost like touching your bottom lip. This is an indication of your peak or most fertile time.  The cervix will remain high until you ovulate - after which estrogen subsides and the hormone progesterone is released causing your cervix to return to its low. closed and hard position.
