INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of preterm labor (PTL) is growing, and annually one in ten babies is born prematurely. Various studies have examined the effect of oral or vaginal probiotics on the prevention of preterm labor, which has yielded contrasting results. This study aimed to compare the impact of vaginal and oral probiotics on the prevention of preterm delivery.
METHODS: This clinical trial was performed among 185 pregnant women with a gestational age greater than or equal to 25 weeks visiting Kamali Hospital, Karaj, Iran in 2020. The participants were divided into three groups; intervention group 1 receiving Oral probiotic pill once a day until 37 weeks of pregnancy, intervention group 2 receiving probiotic vaginal suppository once a day until 37 weeks of pregnancy, and control group not receiving any intervention. Patients were then followed up until the end of pregnancy.
RESULTS: Demographic characteristics and gestational age at the time of intervention were not significantly different among the three groups. Overall, 26.7 % in the control group, 30 % in intervention group 1 %, and 22.5 % in intervention group 2 had deliveries less than 37 weeks. There was no significant difference in the frequency of preterm labor and the duration of pregnancy among the groups (all p > 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Probiotics use does not increase the rate of preterm delivery or reduce the duration of pregnancy, but the rate of preterm delivery was lower in the oral probiotic group. Further clinical studies on the impact of probiotics on PTL can yield valuable results.
