It is unlikely to cause the amount of scarring that would make the cervix so week. How far along were you? Have you been diagnosed with incompetent cervix?

At 5 1/2 weeks the baby is not relying on your cervix to hold it in. The majority of early miscarriages are chromosomal abnormalities and there is nothing you or your body could have done to cause it or prevent it.

Your prior LLETZ had nothing to do with this.
