Abstract
Rates of recurrent preterm birth among women with a prior spontaneous preterm birth 16-28 weeks are high. Women beginning 17-alpha hydroxyprogesterone caproate early deliver later and have improved neonatal outcomes. Clinicians should make every effort to facilitate 17-alpha hydroxyprogesterone caproate initiation at 16 weeks.
