Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Oxytocin is a hormone that causes contractions in the uterus, which can help to accelerate labor and delivery. It is often administered slowly by intravenous drip in cases where labor is progressing slowly or if it needs to be induced. Prolactin, luteinizing hormone, and follicle stimulating hormone are not typically used to accelerate labor and delivery.
