Can A Folded Cervix Affect Pregnancy ?
Hi I am 20 weeks pregnant an recently had some bleeding . I was examined and part of my cervix has folded in on itself. I am finding that I am now getting a lot of stabbing pains almost all of the time. Is there anything that I need to do to help my cervix repair itself? I am concerned that it may effect my pregnancy in some way.
