Pregnant women at 16 0/7 - 23 6/7 weeks gestation who have had one or more term births (no prior preterm births) and have a normal cervical length (\> 25 mm). These women will serve as gestational age controls for all groups.
Pregnant women at 16 0/7 - 23 6/7 weeks gestation who have no prior preterm births and have a short cervical length (20mm or less). These women may receive treatment (e.g. vaginal progesterone, cerclage, pessary, NSAIDs, or a combination thereof) or no treatment.
Pregnant women at 16 0/7 - 23 6/7 weeks gestation who have had prior preterm birth, have a normal cervical length and will receive 17-OHPC treatment.
Pregnant women at 16 0/7 - 23 6/7 weeks gestation who have had prior preterm birth, have a normal cervical length, and will not receive any treatment. These women will serve as controls for Group 3.
This study consists of 4 groups of women who are between 16 0/7 - 23 6/7 weeks gestation. The allocation of a subject to a group is based on two objective assessments (history of preterm birth and cervical length) and the joint clinical decision of the woman and her physician regarding treatment options. Study participants who have no prior preterm births and a normal cervical length will be assigned to Group 1. If the participant has no prior preterm births and a short cervical length, she will be assigned to Group 2 regardless of treatment or no treatment. Group assignment for women with a prior preterm birth and normal cervical length is based on 17-OHPC use. Participants who elect to use 17-OHPC will be assigned to Group 3 and those who choose not to receive any treatment will be assigned to Group 4.
