Abstract
Forty nulliparous patients with Bishop score of 3 or less were given 15 mg oestriol gel, 10 mg PGF2 alpha gel or gel alone via the extra-amniotic route. Both the oestriol and prostaglandin treated patients had a significant increase in Bishop score and a significant reduction in induction-delivery interval compared to controls. Oestriol gel had significantly less stimulatory effect on uterine activity than prostaglandin gel, indicating a possible local action.Entities:
