Abstract

Amaç: İlk 20 haftalık hamilelik döneminde vajinal kanama ile belirginleşen abortus imminens, olumsuz sonuçlar doğurabilecek sık karşılaşılan bir komplikasyondur. Bu durumu yönetmek için yaygın olarak dydrogesteron ve mikronize progesteron reçete edilmektedir, ancak bu iki ilacın karşılaştırmalı etkinliği halen tartışılmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, düşük tehdidini tedavi etmede dydrogesteron ve mikronize progesteronun etkinliğini ve güvenliğini değerlendirmektir.
Yöntemler: Hastanemizde retrospektif vaka-kontrol çalışması yapıldı ve vajinal kanama ile başvuran 6 ila 20 haftalık 123 hamile kadın dahil edildi. Katılımcılar dydrogesteron (n=56) veya mikronize progesteron (n=67) almalarına göre iki gruba ayrıldı. Düşük oranları, erken doğum ve doğum şekli gibi hamilelik sonuçları kaydedildi ve SPSS yazılımı kullanılarak analiz edildi.
Sonuçlar: Düşük oranı dydrogesteron grubunda (%9,6), progesteron grubuna kıyasla (%5,9) biraz daha yüksek olmasına rağmen, bu fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değildi (p=0,729). Her iki grup da yüksek başarılı doğum oranları sergiledi ve aralarında anlamlı bir fark bulunmadı (p>0,05). Ayrıca, her iki grup arasında hamilelik komplikasyonları veya doğum şekli açısından anlamlı farklar gözlemlenmedi.
Sonuç: Hem dydrogesteron hem de mikronize progesteron, düşük tehdidini yönetmede etkili olup, hamilelik sonuçlarında anlamlı fark bulunmamıştır. Tedavi seçimi, hastanın toleransı ve yan etki profiline göre bireyselleştirilmelidir. Bu bulguları doğrulamak ve tedavi kılavuzlarını netleştirmek için daha büyük ölçekli, randomize çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Dydrogesterone vs. Progesterone: Which is More Effective in Threatened Miscarriage?

Abstract

Background/Aims: Threatened miscarriage, marked by vaginal bleeding during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, is a frequent complication with potential adverse outcomes. Dydrogesterone and micronized progesterone are commonly prescribed to manage this condition, yet their comparative efficacy remains under debate. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of dydrogesterone versus micronized progesterone in treating threatened miscarriage.
Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted at Our Hospital, including 123 pregnant women aged 6 to 20 weeks presenting with uterine bleeding. Participants were divided into two groups based on receiving either dydrogesterone (n=56) or micronized progesterone (n=67). Pregnancy outcomes, including miscarriage rates, preterm labor, and mode of delivery, were recorded and analyzed using SPSS software.
Results: The miscarriage rate was slightly higher in the dydrogesterone group (9.6%) compared to the progesterone group (5.9%), though this difference was not statistically significant (p=0.729). Both groups exhibited high rates of successful delivery, with no significant difference between them (p>0.05). Additionally, no significant differences were observed in the incidence of pregnancy complications or mode of delivery between the two groups.
Conclusion: Both dydrogesterone and micronized progesterone are effective in managing threatened miscarriage, with no significant differences in pregnancy outcomes. The choice of treatment should be individualized based on patient tolerance and side effect profiles. Further large-scale, randomized trials are needed to confirm these findings and refine treatment guidelines.
