[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1817958, member: 16453"] My biggest concern would be the risk of something left behind as you get out towards the 3 month mark and beyond and cause infections. and every time you use it you are rolling the dice again. If my memory serves me correct the way dexamethasone works is to induce labour in more advanced pregnancies by actually inducing parturition and needs to be incorporated with a prostaglandin for best effects. As a foetus gets to maturity its cortisol levels increase and become elevated in the cows bloodstream which starts the ball rolling for the parturition process, dexamethasone being like a synthetic cortisone.
