So I’m thinking to myself, ok, this eyeball tattooing stuff is the craziest stuff I’m going to post in a while. I wasn’t even going to post any more tonight, and then I see this piercing come across our desktops and I’m just blown away…
CERVICAL PIERCING?!?!
Definitely one of the wildest things I’ve seen quite in a while. All I can say right now is, wow, I’m really surprised to see this, and it takes a fair amount to surprise me! This was done, DIY, all by touch, by Ashley Crawford at Custom Art in Norwich, England, using a 2mm x 12mm (ie. 1/2″ 12ga) titanium curved barbell.

I’m guessing that the body’s pretty resilient to damage to the cervix and this will probably heal fairly quickly — hopefully Ashley will keep us updated on how it goes. Cervix piercing… Just when you think everything that can be pierced has already been pierced!
Edit/Update #1: From the comments, our resident doctor writes, “Technically difficult but fairly low risk. Probably healed crazy fast too. The cervix is remarkably resilient and can take a lot of abuse. Being very mucosa, it’s a fast healer.”
Edit/Update #2: Click here to read more about it on Ashley’s LJ page (here’s her original entry).
Edit/Update #3: Click here for a long interview on the subject of these piercings as well as the post-gender experience! Highly recommended reading.

37 – from what I gather Ashley does in fact have a son. Bio or not, I’m not sure.
I love the reclamation aspect of it and intense respect for doing it oneself. But I’m sure as hell not trying it…

There seems to be a sadness surrounding Pheonixology that comes across in his LiveJournal entries but at least there is a strong level of understanding and context surrounding this mod which elevates it above most.

if nothing else, points need to be given for the technical aspect of this. it’s not often that I even see or feel my cervix, nevermind getting up there with a needle!

If she can pierce her own cervix, I’m kind of interested to see what else she can do!

Wow was all I could think at first. Then I got to thinking the DIY aspect does make it harder but I could see with the right person doing the piercing that this wouldnt be that hard to do. Granted women with sensitive cervix probably wont do it. But the rest of us who have less sensitive cervix could probably handle this piercing pretty easily. And I can see that it would be one of those that heal crazy fast.
Awesome idea and kudos to pulling it off.

Ow ow ow ow ow. I can’t imagine doing this as DIY! I just had an IUD put in a couple months ago and the doctor gave me an injection in my cervix, did the procedure, and god I wanted to die. I have a high tolerance for pain, but not uterine pain at all. I went home and promptly threw up and spent the rest of the day on painkillers and curled up in bed with a heating pad.
Props to Ashley for having the guts to do this. I’m sad so see that his piercing got screwed up by someone though :/

Oh Lord. I dislike pap smears, much less a piercing! However, I must say the speculum is the worst part!! Kudos to her for doing it!
