Brief Answer: No risks in the procedure ma'am Detailed Answer: Hello ma'am and welcome. Thank you for writing to us. Tgere are various types of cervical cerclage, if you do not mind me asking, which type did you have inserted? A cerclage is usually kept until the delivery is expected, and taken out a while before delivery, after which you can resume with your normal activities while waiting for delivery to take place. There are no risks of removal of a cerclage ma'am. Depending on the type of cervical cerclage; McDonalds can be removed in the out-patient department; Shirodkar will require admission and a transabdominal cerclage is usually followed by a cesarean section. Other than the type of treatment or method that follows removal depending on the type of cerclage, there should be nothing else required. And absolutely nothing to worry about. I hope you found my response both helpful and informative. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help. Best wishes.
