A member asked:

I had a surgical abortion 5 years ago (7 weeks preg) and a d&c 6 months ago (9 weeks preg) should i be concerned about incompetent cervix with my next?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely : 2 procedures an early termination and d and c for miscarriage are unlikely to injure the cervix and make a woman more prone to cervical incompetence. No worries.
