Brief Summary

Threatened miscarriage is a fairly common complication in early

pregnancy. Various studies have claimed the role of progesterone in management of threatened abortion. An oral sustained-release formulation of NMP (NMP-SR) has been developed which has a better tolerability profile and bioavailability than conventional oral NMP allowing for once-daily dosing. Also dydrogesterone allows

administration of lower dose and avoids progestogenic side effects. Based on these evidences we will take an attempt to compare the efficacy of the two preparations of progesterone in patients with threatened miscarriage.
