When to remove cerclage?

Cerclage is typically removed between 36 to 37 weeks of gestation, or when labor begins, to allow for a safe delivery. If there are signs of infection, rupture of membranes, or significant cervical change before this timeframe, the cerclage may be removed earlier. The decision should always be guided by the healthcare provider based on the individual circumstances of the pregnancy. Regular monitoring is essential to determine the appropriate timing for removal.
