Some women have cervical agenesis which means that they are born without a cervix. In this case, they may or may not have a uterus and they may or may not have a vagina.
If there is cervical agenesis with a uterus present, then the options are:
1. maintain the uterus as it is with suppression of retrograde menses with the utilization of continuous oral contraceptive pill or,
2. a surgical procedure to connect the uterus to a vagina which is either present from birth or has been created.
See "Vaginal Agenesis"), for information about complications and fertility options.
