Brief Summary: To demonstrate that the intramuscular administration of 17 alpha hydroxyprogesterones caproate allows to reduce the risk of preterm delivery, in 3 high risk populations defined by the association of an ultrasonographic cervical length egal and inferiority 26 mm between 20 and 32 weeks of gestation and:

* either a first episode of preterm labor stopped by acute tocolysis;
* either a history of late miscarriage or premature delivery or uterine malformation or DES
* either a twin pregnancy. Therefore, a randomised, multicentre trial has been designed with initial stratification according to these three risk groups, opened with two parallel arms.
Detailed Description: Objective

To demonstrate that the intramuscular administration of 17 alpha - hydroxyprogesterones caproate allows to reduce the risk of preterm delivery, in 3 high risk populations defined by the association of an ultrasonographic cervical length 26 mm between 20 and 32 weeks of gestation and:

* either a first episode of preterm labor stopped by acute tocolysis;
* either a history of late miscarriage or premature delivery or uterine malformation or DES
* either a twin pregnancy. Experimental design Prospective, randomized, multicenter, trial with initial stratification according to three risk groups, opened with two parallel arms.

The maximal duration for treatment will be 16 weeks for each included patient. The duration for inclusions will be 30 months. The duration for participation of each patient will be 10 to 22 weeks. The foreseen inclusion period for this trial is from 06/01/2006 to 12/31/2008 Description Two therapeutic strategies will be compared in each risk group and attributed by uniform randomisation.

Arm A :IM injection of 17 alpha hydroxyprogesterones caproate, 500 mg, twice a week until 36 W or until preterm delivery in high risk symptomatic group and high risk twin pregnancies group.

IM injection of 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterones caproate, 500 mg, once a week until 36 W or until preterm delivery in high risk asymptomatic group.

Arm B :No treatment with 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterones caproate. (usual management) Presentation : Progesterone retard Pharlon 500 mg Tolerance criteria

* nausea,vomiting,
* weakness
