Re: Cervical IncompetenceFrom: =?utf-8?B?zpTPgS4gzpnPic6szr3Ovc63z4Igzp3Ouc66zr/Ou865zrTOrM66zrfPgg==?= (nickolidakis@geneticsunit.gr)Tue Aug 27 04:40:47 2002
First, I want to ask if the cone performed by knife or loop or laser. Second, The height of the cone should be no more than 2cm. Cervical length is 5cm. That means that you have at least 3cm gervical length now. I beleive that protects you. I never accepted that prophylactic circlage protects. Third, you may have twice monthly ultrasounds between 20 and 24 week of gestation to count cervical length. Be resting during pregnancy. Do amniocentesis because of your age.

> ----- Original Message ----- I had cervical dysplasia and had to have a cone biopsy in 1988, now I am pregnant and they want to do a circlage, I don't know if that is spelled correctly. Is it a safe procedure. Can I keep exercising as I have always worked out, and what about an amniocentisis, is that also safe. I am 41 yrs old. I had my first son when I was 19.I am extremely healthy, don't drink, and have always exercised. Being so healthy, does that make me a better candidate for a healthy baby, or is it the age of the eggs. Is there a big risk for anything to be wrong? Please write me back to anwswer these questions.Thank you. Julie
