Incompetence cervix
My wife is 20 week preganent and her last Anamoly Scan says she has 24.2mm cervix length. So doctor advised to take progesterone capsule 3 times a day and after one week of observation doctor will see that we can continue with medicine or to go ahead with cervical stitch. My concern is that how will we see that progesterone help in cervical shortening. Is it the length of cervix will increase or it will remain same as it is.
