Using the local picture of degeneration sequences minimal surfaces developed by Chodosh et al. (Invent Math 209(3):617–664, [1]) we show that in any closed Riemannian 3-manifold (M, g), genus an embedded CMC surface can be bounded only terms its index and area, independently value mean curvature. We also if M has finite fundamental group, area non-minimal term a lower bound for
