Abstract
Changes in the vaginal environment have been shown to affect rates of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) colonization. It is possible that cerclage, a foreign body, alters the vaginal environment and changes susceptibility to GBS. Our objective was to compare GBS colonization rates in women with and without transvaginal cerclage, as well as among women with a cerclage using Mersilene versus Prolene suture.
