Uterous

The uterus has three major functions: to prepare a bed for a fertilized ovum, to nourish the developing embryo during pregnancy, and to expel the fetus. Shaped like an upside-down pear, and tilted forwards, it lies within the pelvis and is held in place, along with its two extensions, the Fallopian tubes, by ligaments and folds of the peritoneum. The cervix forms the lower third, connected by a narrow isthmus to the main muscular body of the uterus. The non-pregnant uterus weighs 45–60 g and is 7–8 cm long but its weight increases more than ten-fold by the end of pregnancy.

Cervical priming

Cervical priming is a process where the cervix is made softer and shorter, leading to onset of labour. effectiveness of methods used for cervical priming; this includes intracervical and intravaginal prostaglandins. For women with an unfavourable and favourable cervix, oral prostaglandins do not appear to offer any benefit over other routes of prostaglandin administration or intravenous oxytocin in women requiring cervical priming and induction of labour.
