My latest for #UTSouthwestern:

Vaginal #progesterone, a hormone treatment considered the standard of care for preventing #preterm birth in at-risk pregnant women, may not be effective, according to #UTSW research published in #JAMANetworkOpen. The findings come just as the #FDA is likely to pull #Makena progsterone injections from the market, leaving few options for women and underscoring the need for more research in the area.
