Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is for compare the efficacy of two different regimens(vaginal vs intramuscular) of progesterone therapy in prevention of preterm birth in high risk pregnant women.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objectives of this study is 1) To compare the efficacy of two different regimens of progesterone therapy in preventing preterm birth less than 37 weeks of gestation. 2) To compare the cost-benefit, adverse effects and patient preference of two different regimens of progesterone therapy.
