Endometriosis can be associated with lateral displacement of the cervix
Lateral displacement of the cervix, which can be documented by visual examination of the cervix on speculum examination or by digital examination, is probably caused by the asymmetric involvement of one uterosacral ligament by endometriosis, causing one ligament to shorten and pull the cervix to that side of the body.
