Does anyone believe in a tilted womb?

Diagnosed as having a tilted womb as a result of a forceps delivery by an arvigo massage therapist. Does anyone believe that this could be a reason for not conceiving? Or am I potentially going to be conned out of hundreds of pounds for an abdominal massage and a load of old cobblers? What do you gals think?

Who diagnosed it? Was it "diagnosed" by the same person who wants you to pay them to "fix" it?

If you're concerned, maybe see you GP and find out if you actually do have a tilted uterus.

Massage is supposed to realign it... I am detecting a lot of skepticism here. I'm still not sure what to think. Probably just clutching at straws.

It is definitely real - here's a summary by the Embarrassing Bodies people, but I don't think a massage is going to fix it. How could it?

How does the therapist know you have a tilted womb? And how would forceps cause it - they are only inserted into the birth canal aren't they?

Fledermouse I haven't decided to go through with it yet but it would be an abdominal massage.

Thanks for the tip eastfox!

What kind of massage were you having that they were feeling your womb?

Well it is a real thing (or maybe it was tilted uterus).

I thought people were born with it though.

Have sex doggy style - sorry if a bit crude.

Got told mine was tilted during a smear. Nurse said to stick my legs in the air if I TTC!
