Got my scan report today and it says os closed, doc just smiled and said good but didnt explain much. Im 16 weeks. Can someone tell me what this actually means in simple words?
I am planning my pregnancy and keep reading medical terms. From what I know, 'os closed' means the cervix is tightly shut to protect the baby, which is a great thing!
I totally panicked when I saw 'os closed' on my scan, thinking something was wrong! But my gynac explained it means the door is locked to keep baby safe inside. It is completely normal.
I saw 'os closed' on my ultrasound report last week too and got so worried at first! Is it normal? My doctor said it's good, but did anyone else get confused by this?
Yes, 'os closed' means your cervix is closed, which is exactly how it should be to keep the baby safe inside until delivery. Even before my C-section, they checked this to ensure no early dilation.
It basically means your cervix is closed, which is perfectly healthy. Just like keeping blood sugar in check, keeping the cervix closed is crucial for a smooth pregnancy.
