Cervical Cerclage- need opinion
Hello,
Today we had our NT scan at 12weeks 6 days. And Cervix length is 27mm. We are expecting twins. Dr. has suggested Cervical Stitch as a precaution. My wife is already on vaginal progesterone 400mg daily. I wanted to know if the procedure is safe and the success rates as well.
Thank you

The procedure has its own risks
And failure rates
But with a twin pregnancy and the length of 2.7 at 12 weeks it is always better to undergo the procedure

Have u had any preterm birth or second trimester abortion before? If not then it’s not indicated the cerclage. Only serial cervical length monitoring.
