A member asked:

Got pregnant on 1sr try but m/c at 20w for incompetent cervix. we r ttc for 6months now. i'm 21 and he is 31. period is regular. should i consult or wait?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Wait: It takes a normal couple on average 4-5 months to get pregnant. The previous loss from incompetent cervix won't prevent future pregnancies. We generally recommend waiting until 1 year of trying before seeking help. Most likely you'll be pregnant within the next 6 months (hopefully soon). I would wait.
