Background and Objectives: Preterm birth (PTB), defined as delivery before 37 weeks of gestation, remains a significant public health concern due to its association with neonatal morbidity mortality. Although studies have suggested that microbial factors in vaginal microbiota (VMB) influence PTB, longitudinal research on Korean women is limited. This study aimed analyze VMB differences between term preterm pregnancies their correlation the cervical length (CL). Materials Methods: A cohort 60 pregnant (40 who had (TB) 20 PTB) was recruited. Vaginal samples were collected at five time points (first, second, third trimester; 1–2 postpartum; months postpartum). Microbial DNA extracted analyzed using quantitative PCR targeting 12 bacterial species. The CL measured second trimesters. Results: Lactobacillus crispatus consistently dominant TB group, whereas PTB cases exhibited greater diversity elevated levels Prevotella salivae Ureaplasma significantly shorter cases, correlating shifts composition. Conclusions: stable, Lactobacillus-dominant microbiome protective pregnancy, while increased suggests biomarkers for early risk prediction. Combining profiling measurement may enhance early, non-invasive assessments.
