cervix in the process of contracting back down
Explanation:

Shortly after delivery, the cervix begins contracting back down to its previous size. This process can take several days to several weeks.

Dopo 7 giorni dal parto, in alcune pazienti, alla visita, si apprezzerà di nuovo il collo perfettamente ricostituito e si avrà anche la riformazione del canale cervicale.

agree  Andrew Bramhall: Yes, but leave out the ' back down' bit;
2 days 23 hrs
  -> Thank you, Andrew. I originally thought to leave only contracting, however, the cervix also contracts itself when giving birth and then I thought it would make it clearer to specify that it is contracting back down to reach its original state.
