What is induction of labour?
Labour is a natural process that normally starts on its own but sometimes needs to be started artificially. This is called induction of labour.
Information for patients
Please take a look at our information leaflet and video for more information about being induced. The leaflet includes information about the benefits and risks of induction as well as details about what happens on the day and how labour is started.
