Abstract

The main cause of the threat of abortion in women with less than 20 weeks of gestation is due to the acute appearance of either urinary tract infection, vaginal infection or both, these are the most common infections during pregnancy due to changes in pH most anatomical vaginal of women. In our investigation we took 100 women under 20 weeks of gestation and threatened with abortion, the entire universe was treated with their respective oral and intravaginal antibiotic, depending on each case, and progesterone was added. 47 patients took progesterone orally and the other 53 were injected intramuscularly. It was recorded that, if there is statistical significance of the dependence relationship between the adverse effect and the type of progesterone, that is to say that the patients who administered progesterone intramuscularly had fewer adverse effects compared to those who opted orally as a means of administration, but the time of use had no greater significance between them.
