First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing whether a daily supplement containing magnesium, palmitoylethanolamide, high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin D can help prevent preterm birth in women at risk. The supplement is given alongside standard vaginal progesterone. The trial will enroll 150 pregnant women with a short cervix (between 15 and 30 mm) and follow them until delivery to see if the combination reduces births before 37 weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a combination oral supplement containing magnesium, palmitoylethanolamide, high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin D, plus vaginal progesterone
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, safe supplement-based way to reduce the risk of preterm birth in women with a short cervix.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (150 participants) and the supplement is added to standard care, so any added benefit may be modest. Results may not apply to all at-risk women.
