My last scan report mentioned cervix is bit short and now im worried. Doc explained quickly but i didnt fully understand kyun aisa hota hai. Anyone gone through this?
For small issues home tips are fine, but for cervical shortening there are no home remedies at all. This is a serious matter that only your gynac can monitor, so please go for your scans regularly and report any cramp or pressure.
If your doctor suspects this, they will ask for a transvaginal ultrasound scan which might cost a bit extra but is totally necessary. Budget for these extra tests and follow-ups early so you don't face any last minute stress at the hospital.
My doctor mentioned checking my cervical length in the upcoming scan and I am feeling so anxious about it. Has anyone else been told their cervix is shortening, and what did your doctor advise you to do?
I had a short cervix in my 5th month and my doctor had to put a cervical stitch (cerclage) and put me on strict bed rest. Please don't take this lightly or search for home remedies, just follow your gynac's instructions immediately.
Don't panic, dear, sometimes the cervix shortens because of the pressure of the growing baby or hormonal changes. Just rest as much as possible, avoid lifting anything, and let your doctor handle it with proper medical support.
When my doctor advised bed rest due to early cervical changes, I went to stay at my parents' house so mummy could take care of everything. It really helped to have family around so I didn't have to do any household chores.
