What Are The Reasons For A Cockscomb Cervix ?
Hi I visited my doctor today and I have a cockscomb cervix. He told me that this is sometimes caused by a medication that was given to mothers who had miscarried or might miscarry during the 1960s. My mother has passed away and I am not sure that I can determine whether she took the medicine.

Hello ma'am and welcome.
As your mother has passed on, it is close to.impossible to determine whether or not she was given the pill, but a cockscomb uterus does point towards the use of DES (diethylstilbestrol), making you a DES daughter.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
