What to do if the cervix is ​​loose? Timely treatment to prevent miscarriage

Many women are prone to miscarriage after pregnancy. After examination, it is found that the cervix is ​​relaxed. Women should do this examination before pregnancy. If the cervix is ​​found to be relaxed, it is necessary to treat it in time to avoid miscarriage after pregnancy.

1. Treatment

Recently, there have been more and more cases of miscarriage or premature birth due to intracervical relaxation, which currently has no precise clinical definition. If painless abortion occurs before 26 weeks of pregnancy and the cervix is ​​relaxed during examination, it can be diagnosed as "cervical relaxation syndrome".

Generally speaking, the cervical canal begins to relax from the 4th to 5th month of pregnancy, resulting in the fetal sac falling into the vagina, which often causes water rupture and miscarriage. However, this type of miscarriage rarely has symptoms of bleeding or lower abdominal distension, but is more likely to have white discharge. However, by the time you think this, your water may have broken or you may have started bleeding, and it may be too late to save the situation. Therefore, if you feel an increase in white discharge, you should seek medical treatment immediately.

In special cases, surgery can be used for treatment. In case of multiple miscarriages, the "Siloca method" can be used, which is to remove the bladder and tie it high up at the cervix. If not treated in time, it may affect future fertility. Therefore, in daily life, we need to take better care of the uterus.

If it is treated early, medication can be taken to increase the tightness of the uterine tube, and pregnancy can still be achieved later. If taking medicine alone is still ineffective, you can use thread to perform "cervical suture" on the external uterus and remove the stitches when you give birth.

2. Causes

The causes of cervical relaxation can be divided into two categories: congenital and acquired. Congenital cervical relaxation is caused by the mother taking certain drugs during pregnancy or other reasons that lead to incomplete development of the female uterus; acquired cervical relaxation is caused by birth trauma, too many curettages or frequent perineal examinations.

In addition, a short cervix may also be one of the causes of cervical relaxation. There are reports that when ultrasound examination shows a short cervix, the chances of miscarriage or premature birth in a pregnancy are greatly increased. But it is possible to get through the pregnancy safely and give birth successfully. Moreover, the length of the cervix is ​​affected by many factors, such as the ratio of cervical muscle and fiber. During pregnancy, as the uterus grows and stretches into the abdominal cavity, the cervix may also become shorter.

The main clinical feature of congenital cervical relaxation is that premature birth or miscarriage occurs in every pregnancy; while acquired cervical relaxation is characterized by increasingly earlier and earlier occurrences of premature birth or miscarriage, or normal pregnancy and delivery at the beginning, but then premature birth or miscarriage occurs for some reason.

There is currently no drug treatment for uterine os relaxation, and the role of surgical treatment is still controversial. Because some pregnant women who have undergone cerclage surgery experience cervical rupture during delivery, which makes delivery and treatment difficult.
