Prevention and treatment of pregnancy-induced hypertension (preeclampsia) with progestogens
J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol.
2005 Dec.
Abstract
Available data indicate that progesterone is able to treat pregnancy-induced hypertension (preeclampsia). Dydrogesterone and 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate might also be used for this purpose. Prevention of hypertensive disorders in preeclampsia also seems possible, but studies are needed to confirm this.
