Cervical insufficiency is known as endocervical dystocia, and to determine if endocervical dystocia is present you can perform a cervical breadth exam, a cervical canal exam during pregnancy, and an ultrasound.
1. Cervical width examination, through the cervical width examination can understand the condition of the cervix during non-pregnancy, and determine whether there are symptoms of endocervical laxity.
2. Cervical canal examination during pregnancy: Cervical canal examination during pregnancy can help to find out whether the cervical canal has shortened or softened significantly during pregnancy.
3. Ultrasound examination, through the ultrasound examination can measure the length of the cervix and the dilatation of the cervical opening, to determine whether there is any abnormal reaction.
If there is endocervical laxity during pregnancy, it is necessary to do a good job of birth control to avoid preterm miscarriage or premature labor.
