Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To investigate the incidence of preterm birth in IVF fresh embryo transplantation cycle patients after prolonged vaginal progesterone treatment

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Progesterone Sustained-release vaginal gel
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Participant: 20-40 years old, IVF fresh embryo transplantation, singleton pregnancy, blood/urine HCG (+) Control group: The administration of vaginal progesterone (90mg/d) began from positive HCG in blood/urine until 12 weeks of gestation. Regular delivery examinations were conducted, and cervical length was detected by B-ultrasound at 12, 16, 20 and 24 weeks of gestation respectively, while fetal growth and development were monitored. Follow-up was continued until the end of delivery.

Trial group: The administration of vaginal progesterone (90mg/d) began from positive HCG in blood/urine until 24 weeks of gestation. Regular delivery examinations were conducted, and cervical length was detected by B-ultrasound at 12, 16, 20 and 24 weeks of gestation respectively, while fetal growth and development were monitored. Follow-up was continued until the end of delivery.

Observation index: The gestational age of delivery, symptoms of preterm birth and gestational age, gestational age at preterm birth or abortion, fetal growth and development, neonatal outcomes, and drug-related adverse reactions were recorded for each participant.
