拉顶氏征象
拉顶氏征象（Ladin's sign）是一种怀孕的医学征象[1]，是指子宫和子宫颈交界处的前方中线处变软的情形，约在孕期六周时出现，而且可以用人工检查来发现[2]。
若妇女认为有怀孕可能，进行第一次的骨盆检查时，一般就会出现拉顶氏征象[3]。子宫颈长度在怀孕期间也很重要，子宫颈长度过短可能会增加早产以及分娩的可能性，而在分娩开始时，子宫颈长度会自然缩短[4]。受孕造成的子宫颈软化以及其他怀孕的早期征象，有助于医师诊断是否怀孕[5]。
子宫颈软化的原因，除了拉顶氏征象以外，在怀孕时也可能会有子宫颈异常软化，因此需要透过包括剪力波速度量测（sheer wave speed measurement）在内的检查，来区分正常的拉顶氏征象以及异常的子宫颈软化[6]。
