"The retroverted uterus almost never causes symptoms, although it is sometimes associated with dyspareunia and dysmenorrhoea. This is thought to be because the retroverted position causes the uterus to approach the rectum and contact the posterior vaginal wall, mobilisation of the uterus during sex generates pain (sometimes very severe) especially if the uterus is fixed in that position."

"A retroverted uterus is a normal variation of female pelvic anatomy in which the body of the uterus is tilted backwards (usually leans forward, i.e. anteverted) on itself to match the isthmus of the neck and lower uterine segment. There are variable grades of uterine retroversion."
