Early placental development can be determined by measuring placental growth factor or PlacentalÃÂ growth factor (PlGF) through the mother's blood since the first trimester of pregnancy. The purpose of this studyÃÂ was to determine the effect of supplementation on the development didrogesteron placenta in pregnancy byÃÂ measuring the levels of PlGF. This study is a randomized double-blind clinical trial (Randomized ControlledÃÂ Clinical Trial) held at the Antenatal Clinic (ANC) at the General Hospital dr. Zainoel Abidin (RSUZA), Banda Acehto women of reproductive age in the first trimester in RSUZA ANC checkup. Nonprobability sampling samplingÃÂ with consecutive sampling. In this study there were two groups of women of reproductive age who are not inÃÂ pairs is given didrogesteron group A while group B received placebo. Measurement of PlGF levels in both groupsÃÂ performed before and after treatment. PlGF levels prior to treatment in Group A 25.95 pg/ml while Group BÃÂ 40.80 pg/ml. PlGF levels after the measurement results given didrogesteron in Group A for 4 weeks gainedincreasing levels of PlGF is 212.15 pg/ml, whereas in group B were given a placebo for 4 weeks was 89.60ÃÂ pg/ml. Data analysis was performed using bivariate analysis between supplementation didrogesteron and PlGFlevels using SPSS 17. Analysis of data for comparative analytical numerical information unpaired two groups:ÃÂ Group A: the results of a PlGF levels in pregnant subjects were given didrogesteron and Group B: the results ofa PlGF levels in pregnant patients given placebo. Unpaired t-test results of the two groups showed that theÃÂ group receiving didrogesteron have elevated levels of PlGF were significantly (p = 0.000 or p 0.05) comparedÃÂ with the placebo group were only given alone. From these results it can be concluded that the administrationÃÂ can trigger didrogesteron PlGF levels in women of reproductive age.
