Hello,welcome to HCM. I think you have not required any circlage operation as you told your cervical length. Usually we go for circlage operation when cervical length is less than 2.5cm. This procedure mainly done at 16 to 18 weeks of pregnancy. Low back pain usually occured due to lordosis of lumber spine and it increase with increasing gestational age. If you have any other query then you can contact me. Thank you.
