The uterine souffle is a soft, blowing sound that is synchronous with the maternal pulse. It is usually heard most distinctly near the lower portion of the uterus.

It also may be heard with any condition in which uterine blood flow is greatly increased, for example, with large uterine myomas or ovarian tumors.
