Preterm birth is when delivery occurs before 37 weeks. It's a leading cause of infant death, disability, and other complications.

Progesterone is thought to help stop the uterus from contracting prematurely. So it's given to high-risk moms...such as those with a short cervix or prior pre-term birth.
