The "cuff" is like a tube sock and the cervix is the stitched toe. When removed.. They sew it to the edges and let the center grow together... Sometimes Silver Nitrate is used But Mine wasn't and I too have torn mine just from working out too soon after the surgery and I guess too hard. Becasuse I just got home from surgery to restitch the cuff and repair a tear.
Since none else could help me I found out myself. No, it can not be torn during intercourse once it is completely healed.
Mine was.
almost 3 months after surgery I had sex and we tore a hole right through... So BE CAREFUL!
