Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Gynaecology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: Preterm labour is one of the common complications in pregnancy. It remains a major cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Aim and Objective: To study the role of micronized progesterone in preterm labour Methodology: Total 100 pregnant women with period of gestation between 24-36 weeks, who were admitted with preterm labour were studied. They were studied in 2 groups (50 patients each). Group A received micronized progesterone vaginally and group B received no drug. Data collected for maternal and foetal outcome. Results and Discussion: Mean period of gestation at delivery in group A was significantly more (36.23± 1.5 weeks) than group B (33.14± 1.4weeks). Mean prolonged days of pregnancy in group A were significantly more (33.14± 11.2 days) than in group B (25.43± 8.9 days.) (p<0.05) 62% of neonates in Group A had birth weight significantly more than 2500 grams as compared to 30% in Group B.(p<0.05)
