What is Understanding Parturition and Labor Stages about?
1. Parturition requires dilation of the cervix and strong uterine contractions to expel the fetus. 2. During late gestation, the cervix begins to soften and the uterus becomes more excitable in preparation for labor. 3. A number of hormonal factors including estrogen, oxytocin, corticotropin releasing hormone, and inflammation trigger the onset of labor and induce contractions.
