Cervical incompetence :
When the cervix of the female reproductive organs weakens or opens up early, it is called Cervical incompetence. The risk of miscarriage and premature birth is more prone to cervical incompetence. Pregnant women with a possibility of twin delivery are more likely to have cervical incompetence. Mostly, the patients are asymptomatic, however, few patients present with pain in the pelvic region, and they might notice a difference in their discharge. Diagnosis is done by complete pelvic examination, transvaginal ultrasound, and some basic blood investigations. The ultimate goal of the gynecologists to treat cervical incompetence would be to continue the pregnancy as much as possible. Treatment includes procedures like cervical cerclage and progesterone supplements. Some of the complications which a patient might develop post-procedure include infection, internal bleeding, and uterine rupture. One cannot prevent cervical incompetence however lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet, avoiding alcohol, proper exercise and regular follow ups with gynecologist are the measures to be taken.
