Progesterone in prevention of recurrent preterm delivery

Dr. Ali Al Delbani

Abstract :

Progesterone is steroid hormone implicated in the female menstrual period, pregnancy (supports gestation) and emyogenesis of humans. Progesterone  plays an fundamental role in each stage of human pregnancy.In early pregnancy, progesterone produced by the corpus luteum is critical to the maintenance of early pregnancy until the placenta takes over this function, the role of progesterone in later pregnancy, however, is less pure.

Use of progesterone todecrease preterm deliveryis necessary.And  progesterone supplementation diminishes preterm delivery in a select very high–risk group of femaleswith a considerably reduced rate of preterm labor, preterm delivery, and birth weight <2500 g
