Italian term or phrase: collo uterino cedevole
Esame ostetrico paziente incinta a 40 settimane:
"collo uterino posteriore, cedevole, appena raccorciato, chiuso"

Any ideas for cedevole?

soft (cervix)
Explanation:
In many similar medical reports, I found "collo uterino soffice". My proposed answer is to continue translating in this way even if the physician in this case uses another term.
