Abstract Thirty-five patients were given varying amounts of stilbestrol during pregnancy. The average age of these patients was 26 years, the youngest 13 and the oldest was 39. These patients had an average of 33,320.5 mg. total dose and a daily average of 244 mg. These patients were taking an average of 499 mg. of stilbestrol every twenty-four hours at the time of the onset of labor. They delivered on an average on the two hundred sixty-eighth day of pregnancy, so estrogenic withdrawal at term may not be an important factor in the cause of labor. The fetuses in missed abortions were not retained, but appeared to be expelled when stilbestrol was given.
