Anteversion (Anteversioh)

Anteversion (Anteversioh) is an anterior displacement of an organ, in particular, a normal anterior displacement of the uterus.

Uterine anteversion is the normal anatomical position of the uterus in women of childbearing age. Normally, the uterus is displaced anteriorly at an angle of about 90-100 degrees relative to the axis of the vagina. This position provides optimal conditions for conception, gestation and childbirth.

With anteversion, the cervix is ​​directed downward and posteriorly, and the fundus of the uterus is directed upward and anteriorly. This position allows sperm to more easily penetrate the uterine cavity. During pregnancy, anteversion ensures that the muscles of the uterus are evenly stretched as it enlarges. During childbirth, the fetal head presses on the anterior wall of the uterus, which contributes to a more physiological course of labor.

Deviation of the position of the uterus from normal anteversion in one direction or another can lead to menstrual irregularities, infertility, and complicated pregnancy and childbirth. Therefore, it is important to promptly diagnose and, if necessary, correct pathological deviations in the position of the uterus.



Anteversion is the deviation of an organ from its normal position towards the anterior wall of the abdominal cavity. In medicine, anteversion can be associated with various diseases and conditions, such as hernias, tumors, adhesions, as well as with anatomical features of the structure of organs. In this article we will look at uterine anteversion, which is a normal physiological process.

The uterus is an organ that is located in the pelvic cavity in women and performs a reproductive function. The uterus is pear-shaped and consists of three main parts: the body, the cervix and the fundus. Normally, the uterus is located in the center of the pelvis, its body is directed downward and backward, and the cervix is ​​directed upward and forward. However, in some women, the uterus may be displaced posteriorly or anteriorly, which can lead to various complications.

Uterine anteversion is an anterior displacement of the uterus. It can be caused by various factors, such as pregnancy, obesity, injury, pelvic surgery and others. With anteversion of the uterus, a woman may experience discomfort in the abdomen, pain in the lower abdomen, menstrual irregularities and other symptoms.

Treatment for uterine anteversion depends on the cause of its occurrence. If anteversion is caused by pregnancy, then after childbirth the uterus returns to its normal position. If anteversion is associated with other causes, then surgical intervention may be required.

In conclusion, it can be said that uterine anteversion is a normal physiological condition that can be caused by various factors. However, if anteversion causes discomfort and disturbances in the functioning of the body, then it is necessary to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.



The problem of combining parasympathetic and sympathetic tone of the pelvic floor muscles in women is extremely relevant. Thus, according to various authors, it occurs in 20-57% of cases in gynecological patients [2,9]. The presence of this problem causes conditions for the development of symptoms associated with bladder outlet obstruction, bladder muscle dysfunction, and vesicoureteral reflux. These problems directly affect the quality of life of patients, determine their reproductive plans, and in some cases become the reason for contacting a urologist, and at any age. Depending on the nature of the dysfunction of the pelvic muscles and its possible consequences, the following forms of anteversion of the bladder neck are distinguished. The first option refers to normopathy and is designated by the abbreviation APQSI (anteversio pubocervicalis qusitone staturi inersiois, lat. displacement of the bladder neck anteriorly downwards). In this type, displacement of the bladder is caused by weak tone of its own muscles.
