More doctors are now advising their patients to induce labor earlier.
found that across 500,000 women with low-risk pregnancies in the U.K., 9.5 percent were induced into labor at 39 weeks. Many of those individuals were less likely to experience birth complications such as stillbirths and neonatal deaths.
Babies born at 39 weeks versus 40 weeks showed a small reduction in health problems following delivery. There was 3.3 percent of complications in infants born at 40 weeks compared to the 3.3 percent observed in those born at 39 weeks. This decrease in risk was most apparent among women living in low socioeconomic areas.
The benefits of induction were observed mainly in residents of socioeconomically deprived areas and in those who have never given birth before, explains, an associate professor at London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and senior study author. “We’re suggesting that these women are offered induction of labor at this stage.”
Pregnant people from low-income households might have limited access to educational and health resources than people of a higher class. Gurl-Urganci says this socioeconomic deprivation, which disproportionately affects individuals with minority ethnic backgrounds, is linked to higher rates of maternal smoking, obesity, and mental illness.
