Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Proluton depot is a hormonal preparation to help feral growth&continuation of pregnancy. Looking at her cervical size &babies lower position there is chance of early delivery with premature birth of baby. The medicines given (including Proluton depot) are to prevent early delivery (so as baby born would be viable) & also controls vaginal infection. Patients on proluton depot are known to have vaginal deliveries or lscs,depending on the other factors (fetal or maternal). Please don't worry,take the treatment as advised by your doctor. Follow the instructions given. There would be no problem &you would have a safe normal or lscs delivery in proper time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
