How is it determined if a woman had a birth, say 10 years ago? How safe, accurate and reliable is the procedure?

Hi Nasreene,
On examination, often following birth the opening of the cervix (the os) typically will take on a more elongated shape rather than a small circular shape. Also, the uterus typically remains larger after pregnancy than a pre-pregnancy size.
I suspect these are not likely to be 100% accurate however.
Best wishes.
