Abstract
This disclosure generally relates to methods for reducing the risk of preterm birth in a pregnant human female patient that include subcutaneous administration of HPC. The disclosure relates in part to the discovery that subcutaneous administration of HPC is actually feasible and can result in sufficient plasma levels of HPC in pregnant patients that can reduce the risk of preterm birth.
