A member asked:
At 20 weeks, is cerclage good option and safe ? my cervix length is 3 cm so not sure if i should go for cerclage now or at later stage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually earlier: A cerclage is typically placed earlier in the pregnancy in patients who meet very specific criteria. A cervical length of 3 cm would be normal but their could be circumstances that a cerclage may be appropriate. Do not hesitate to get a second opinion from a perinatologist..
