I'm just wondering if I'll need to have a cervical stitch if we decide to go for a second pregnancy. Last time, during my second trimester, I had a cervical cerclage because of two previous miscarriages. My first child is 2 years old now, and I'm curious if this procedure would be necessary again. Any advice you could share would be really helpful.

Since you had a cervical cerclage during your second trimester in your previous pregnancy due to a risk of miscarriage, it's possible that your doctor may recommend a cervical stitch again for a subsequent pregnancy kindly consult your gynecologist

My wife has an 18x17 mm submucous fibroid in the fundus region of her uterus, and it's indenting the endometrium. She's had four miscarriages in a row, all with bleeding between 6 to 12 weeks. Could this fibroid be causing the miscarriages? Would she need surgery to remove it?

A submucous fibroid can cause miscarriages and surgery like hysteroscopic myomectomy may be needed to improve pregnancy chances.
