normal angles between the vagina, the cervix, and the
body of uterus;
viewed from the right.

Longitudinal axis of the vagina
** Longitudinal axis of the cervix of uterus
*** Longitudinal axis of the body of uterus
Angle between vagina and cervix of uterus = version
Angle between cervix and body of uterus = flexion
Normal topographical situation of the uterus:
anteversion, anteflexion
Relation to the median plane = position
