Elevated: Having a preterm birth in one pregnancy increases the risk of preterm birth in future pregnancies. It is also important to determine if the cause preterm labor, preterm rupture of membranes or an incompetent cervix. Ask if you are a candidate for a cerclage or for 17 Hydroxy Progesterone injections.
