NCT ID NCT05966649

First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study tests whether taking synbiotics (a mix of probiotics and prebiotics) early in pregnancy can help women who have had a preterm birth before. The goal is to see if these supplements can stabilize the vaginal microbiome and reduce the chance of delivering too early. About 402 pregnant women with a history of preterm birth will take either synbiotics or a placebo from the first trimester onward.
