A strawberry cervix is a finding upon examination where the cervix has a punctate and papilliform appearance. It is named because of the superficial appearance to a strawberry.

As opposed to a more general inflammation of the cervix found in cervicitis, the strawberry cervix is considered to be selectively associated with Trichomonas infections.[1]
