"Diagnosis and management of preterm labor" - with Dr. Jessica Spiegelman

Pre-term labor, which is defined by experiencing contractions with a change in cervix dilation, occurs during more pregnancies than people might think. Dr. Nathan Fox and Dr. Jessica Spiegelman explain the difference between this and preterm contractions, and why in most cases, it either stops on its own or results in a normal full-term delivery. In some situations though, there are simple protocols they're able to perform to help reduce the risk of complications.
