A member asked:

I had mono/mono twins at 30wks w/ cervical shortening/premature rupture. was this due to multiples or am i at risk for preemie in another pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends: If you ever had a procedure on your cervix for abnormal pap you are at risk premature labor. Mononucleosis does not cause abnormal paps. Twin gestation also increases risk of premature labor
