The breadth of the uterus isdifficult to estimate bimanually, but allowing an inch for the cavitybetween the Fallopian tubes its greatest breadth is 2 inches (fig. 22, B). The position of the uterus in the body is shown in fig. 6. Thecervix forms with the body an angle open to the front, that is, the uterusis anteflexed ; its general axis is directed forwards, that is, it is ante-verted ; and it rests on the bl
