Parturition dysfunction in obesity: time to target the pathobiology.

Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E - 18 Dec 2015

Carlson Nicole S, Hernandez Teri L, Hurt K Joseph

Abstract excerpt

Over a third of women of childbearing age in the United States are obese, and during pregnancy they are at increased risk for delayed labor onset and slow labor progress that often results in unplanned cesarean delivery. The biology behind this dysfunctional parturition is not well understood. Studies of obesity-induced changes in parturition physiology may facilitate approaches to optimize labor in obese women....
