and control group who will receive no treatment (place. group). Results: No significant differences were found between both groups regarding all
demographic data and pregnancy characteristics. Abortions were higher in place. group 17
(23.94%) than in prog. group 12 (16.44%) with no significant difference p value = 0.263.
The incidence of preterm labour was also higher in the place. group 22
