| Miscarriage per clinical pregnancy | 17% | 16% (11-21%) | 0.92 (0.68-1.26) | 988/8 | No clinically relevant difference | Moderate1 |
| Dissatisfaction | One study showing a large reduction (RR=0.10, 95%CI=0.02-0.39) and the other study showing no significant difference (RR=1.19, 95%CI=0.46-3.04) | |||||
| All outcomes, except miscarriage, were analyzed per randomized women. CI = confidence interval; RR = relative risk; a = The absolute risk in the Vaginal Progesterone group was determined as the mean risk in these groups; the absolute risk in the Oral Dydrogesterone group and its 95% CI was determined using the RR and its 95% CI; 1. Downgraded one level because of imprecision. |
