The length of the cervix is normal and rest of parameters are normal
There are no high risk factors in her medical history. However you need to be cautious. Hormonal supplements can prevent early onset labour and pains. You will also need to have serial scanning to see if the internal os is opening. Also avoid strenuous physical exercise .

Hi
So using words mild patulous won’t serve any purpose if we don’t have measurements.
So first get a measurement of internal os done.
If it’s less than 1 cm dilated, then practically nothing needs to be done
Your doctor may give you a progesterone support and / or uterine relaxant medications.
1-2 cm dilated then emergency circulate needs to be done.
Take care
