Maybe: It depends on how far pregnant you were and the means needed to dilate your cervix. It would not affect getting pregnant, but possibly chances of preterm delivery.

At 23 weeks of pregnancy I found out that my cervix is 3cm long, my doc said it's fine for now but I'm kind of worried. Shouldn't I be on cervical surveillance for the next few weeks? And can I be sexually active at this point?
