22 years old, lumps/bumps on my cervix opening?

Hello everyone, feeling a little worried and wondered if anyone has experienced the same. I have two children aged 2 & 1, I tend to check my cervix monthly after having them. Around 4 weeks ago I noticed two smooth hard bumps on my cervix opening. I left it as I wondered if this was a normal thing to happen - I checked again a couple days ago and they are still there. No other symptoms. I have an examination next Wednesday and feeling very anxious and sick with worry. Has anyone else had anytning similar please? Obviously there's a red flag in my head panicking it could be cervical cancer :( thank you in advance guys. X

  • Hey i have the exact same 28 with 3kids youngest being 1 im soo worried, what was your outcome x

  • Hello my lovely!!

    so basically they were just Nabothian cysts. Very common to have them because we've had children, I still have them now! Depends where abouts on the cycle but sometimes you can feel them more than other times. Have you got a doctors appointment? Please try to relax, it's going to be more than likely nothing to worry about at all, they'll do a simple examination. If you've got no symptoms alongside, it's likely to be the same as me. They leave them alone too, they will come and go. It's just from having children. Although they are caused by a number of factors. I was scared too but I'm so relieved i know now and I can also help others :))

    im happy to reply to you as much as you need x
