In April 2023, both the ACOG and SMFM released their clinical updates regarding the use of progesterone for preterm birth prevention.

A new expert commentary from October 2023 in the AJOG -MFM is calling for a reappraisal of those opinions.

And, where does cerclage fit in? Listen in for all this...and more.
