Cervical Stitching Treatment

A cervical stitch or cerclage helps in the strengthening of the cervical opening and mucous formation to prevent early water breakage. A stitch is put 13 to 14 weeks before the delivery date, through the vagina or by means of an abdominal surgery. Regular visits to the doctor are required to monitor the condition of the womb and the position of the stitches in the cervix.

Periods delayed

Usually it lasts for 4 days. Since then I don't have my periods yet. I took UPT today and there is a faint line on it. Could it be possible that I am pregnant? Also last month my ENT gave me steroid Defza 6 for throat infection twice a day for 5 days. Could that be reason for delay in periods? I am 41 years old. We have tried to conceive naturally and through IVF in the last few years and have not been able to conceive just fyi. Had 2 early miscarriages at 8 weeks.
