| when we counsel regarding induction of labour, can we say that it does not increase caesaean section rate but it increases instrumental delivery rate. is this right? |

Yes due to loss of Ferguson's reflex. Increase in instrumental and rotational deliveries.
No effect on 1st stage or caesarean rate |
