"Q: I just had a cold knife biopsy done for dysplasia and they removed over 90% of my cervix. What are my chances of being able to concieve again?
A: Since you still have a uterus and ovaries, you certainly can conceive. The sperm travels thorugh the cervix (even if it is very short) and travel through the Fallopian tubes to the the end of the tube. If you have ovulated (from the ovary) the egg situates itself at the end of the tube and the sperm will fertilize this egg. The fertilized egg (ovum) travels back to the uterus and implants into the endometrium.
There is no problem conceiving no matter how much cervix you have.
The fetus grows in the uterus and that should not be a problem either.
During pregnancy, the cervix should be 4cm in length. If it is less than 3 there is a risk of incompetent cervix leading to miscarriage or preterm labor. Once you become pregnant, your doctor may recommend a cervical cerclage. This is the placement of one or two stitches on whatever cervix remains, essentially enforcing the cervix and preventing dilatation. The cerclage works in around 70% of the time. The stitch is removed at term and you are allowed to dilate and deliver the baby.
In some cases, the stitch is not removed and you can deliver by cesarean section. Without a cerclage, there is a high chance of preterm labor or miscarriage. Pregnancy is doable. Good Luck."

It receives wetter and better whilst ovulating. regrettably, cervical place will inform you little approximately regardless of if or not you're pregnant. some women checklist that it receives bigger not decrease once you're pregnant, yet this rather varies for each guy or woman. good luck!!!
