Risk of preterm delivery after medically indicated termination of pregnancy with induced vaginal delivery: a case-control study.

We investigated whether nonsurgical termination of pregnancy after 14 weeks of gestation increases the risk of preterm delivery in a subsequent pregnancy. We conducted a two-centre retrospective case-control study. Patients who underwent non-surgical termination of pregnancy after 14 weeks of gestation between 2012 and 2015 and who gave birth after 14 weeks of gestation to a live-born singleton infant were included.
