Hello! With the question "Is the cervical length 27mm at 16 weeks pregnant?" The doctor advises as follows: The bigger the pregnancy, the longer the cervix changes. Normally, at about 24 weeks of pregnancy, the cervical length will be 35mm, and in the case of 16 weeks pregnant, the 27mm cervix is short. Children with this condition will be more likely to be born prematurely than normal people.
Cervical waist stitch is a technique used to narrow the cervix during pregnancy, the cervical collar stitching to treat the condition of short cervical length, you should see an obstetrician-gynecologist for advice. more specific. You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System to get more advice from doctors.
