What does CD mean in pregnancy?
CD stands for “cervical diameter.” It is a measure of the width of the cervical canal. The cervical canal is the opening through which the baby passes during labor.
The cervical diameter is measured during a cervical exam. It is one of the ways that doctors determine if a woman is in labor.
The cervical diameter may also be used to predict the likelihood of a cesarean section. A woman with a cervical diameter of less than 2.5 cm is more likely to require a cesarean section.
