Yes, myometrial contractions can contribute to preterm labor. The myometrium, which is the smooth muscle layer of the uterus, can contract in response to various stimuli, leading to cervical changes and the onset of labor.

Factors such as stress, infections, or uterine overdistension can trigger these contractions.
