Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Are you pregnant now, if so how many weeks? There are various reasons for preterm delivery. Recurrent preterm delivery can be seen in uterine anomalies, intrauterine infection, cervical incompetence and tobacco use. Being underweight and young maternal age is important factors for recurrent preterm birth. Do you have any preexisting medical conditions or did your babies have any fetal anomalies?
