Re: =?Windows-1252?Q?¿_Uterus_have_sistolic_an_diastolic_contraction_??From: Terry J DuBose (tjdubose@juno.com)Sat Mar 16 09:08:27 2002
Dr. Baracat, slow uterine peristaltic motions (contractions) have been documented with endovaginal sonography. The peristaltic motion is in the direction of the cervix during menses and toward the fundus during mid-cycle ovulation times. This was thought to help remove the sloughing endomentrium at menses and perhaps aid sperm travel at ovulation. I also saw a video on USA Public Television (about 2-3 years ago, either NOVA or a BBC production) which showed a sudden downwards motion of the cervix with female orgasms. It was presumed that both the peristaltic motions and these "dipping" motions were a natural process to aid fertility and not a hindrance to it. There certainly is room for more research in to this somewhat obscure aspect of human reproduction.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
