Can someone please help me understand the GPAL, TPAL system. How to write it out and how to understand the meaning. IE G5P1 etc. I have been on different websites and they explain it differently

Thanks in advance

Gravida- any pregnancy, regardless of duration. G5 means she's been pregnant 5 times. P- number of preterm infants born after 20 weeks and before 37 weeks. T- number of term pregnancies born on/after 37 weeks. A- pregnancies ending in spontaneous abortion or therapeutic abortion. L- number of current living children. So if women a woman G3P2A0L2. This means she has been pregnant 3 times and had 2 premature births with no abortions and 2 children living. 3 is because she is currently preganat.
