What is injected to induce delivery in humans?(a) Estrogen(b) Oxytocin(c) Progesterone(d) RelaxinI had been asked this question during an interview.I'd like to ask this question from Human Reproduction topic in portion Human Reproduction of Biology – Class 12

Answer»

Correct choice is (b) OXYTOCIN

For explanation I would say: Oxytocin is the stimulant released from anterior pituitary to increase contractions of the UTERINE wall. DECREASED levels of oxytocin can result in the inability to push the baby out. In such scenarios, the patient is injected with intravenous oxytocin to induce uterine contractions to deliver the baby.
