Preterm Labor (PTL) is defined as regular contractions associated with cervical changes after 20 weeks’ gestation and prior to 37 completed weeks of gestation. • It is the second, only to birth defects, as the leading cause of neonatal mortality. It occurs in up to 12 % of all pregnancies and is the most frustrating clinical dilemmas in obstetrics.
Molecular Mechanism of PTL 1. Premature activation of the maternal or fetal HPA axis 2. Decidual and amniochorionic inflammation 3. Decidual hemorrhage 4. Pathologic uterine distention
ADRENAL HORMONES Cortisol Aldosterone Sex hormone & DHEA Adrenaline Noradrenaline
