NCT07541313 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cervical length is usually measured using ultrasound, and if it is shortened, hormone therapy (progesterone) is recommended to reduce the risk of premature birth.

The investigators want to find out what cervical stiffness is like in women with a shortened cervical length before and during hormone therapy. The investigators believe that this measurement will help to better assess the risk of premature birth in the future.
