I see many questions and answers on a retroverted uterus. What about the anteverted uterus? What does it mean, and what implications does it have for health and sexual function?

An anteverted uterus is one that tilts slightly forward; it is the normal position for the uterus. Between 10 and 20 percent of women have a retroverted (backward-tilting) uterus; 10-20 percent have a midposition uterus (one that neither tilts forward or backward); and the remainder have an anteverted uterus. An anteverted uterus has absolutely no implications for reproductive or sexual functioning.
