It is usually congenital due to lack of promotion of the organ. ▪ Cervical ectopia: it is the eversion or exit of the endocervical tissue outwards, so that it is visible when we explore the vagina with the speculum. ▪ Ectopic pregnancy: occurs when the fertilized egg is implanted in a place other than the fundus of the uterus.
