title: [The outcome of pregnancy and labor after a period of sterility].
abstract: In a retrospective study is examine the effect of a previous state of sterility on the outcome of pregnancy and labor. For two years (1993-1994) there were 203 (2.6%) women who gave birth after 6.7% +/- 3.5 years of sterility. From the study are excluded 9 women (4.4%) with multifetal pregnancies and 13 cases (6.4%) with different diseases, which may adversely affect the pregnancy of the foetus. In the study group of 181 primiparous women the rate of premature labor is 2.2% which is significantly lower than the hospital incidence (11%) for the same period. The cesarean section (CS) rate after period of sterility is unreasonably high--69%. In the subgroup scheduled for vaginal labor CS are performed in 34% of cases. The indications for the elective CS are complex, less justifiable and partially due to non medical reasons. The past period of sterility has not adverse effect on the course of the vaginal labor or the state of the newborn at delivery.
