An Old Mith Shattered : Sex in late
pregnancy does not induce labour |
|
| |
Times of India : June14,2006 : By Anahad O' Connor :
The facts expectant mothers awaiting the end of their pregnancy are often
told that sex can induce labour. Compare that method with running around the
block a few times or drinking castor oil - two other folk beliefs - and its
no surprise that surveys of pregnant women have found sex to be the most
popular option. Whether the method works is another story. According
to a study released this month , the first to examine the belief , having
sexual intercourse in the late stages of pregnancy does not hasten labor and
delivery , and in fact it may do opposite. The study in the journal
OBSTERTICS AND GYNECOLOGY , followed 93 women in their third
trimesters , all of whom answered questions about their sexual activity and
underwent cervical examinations at regular doctors visits. Those who
reported having sex in their final weeks of pregnancy - about half -
delivered on average at 39.9 weeks , compared with 39.3 weeks among those
who had abstained. The study also revealed something else . Part
of the scientific explanation for the belief is that human sperm contains
the hormone prostagladin , believed to stimulate the cervix and help start
contractions. But prelabor exams showed no signs of this effect in any of
the women who were sexually acvtive , said Jonathan Schaffir , an assistant
professor of Obstetrics and gynecology at Ohio State University and the
author of the study. The bottomline is sex during the late stages of
pregnancy does not hasten delivery. NYT News service. |
