Precipitate labour - what does this mean

Precipitate labour is a type of labour that occurs when a woman goes into labour before reaching full-term gestation. it is usually caused by uterine contractions that are too strong and frequent, leading to a rapid dilation of the cervix and a shortened labour time.

What happens during the disease - precipitate labour

Precipitate labour is a condition in which labour begins unexpectedly and rapidly, often before the 37th week of pregnancy. it is thought to be caused by a combination of hormonal and environmental factors, such as an increase in stress hormones, an infection in the uterus, or a change in the mother's diet or lifestyle. these factors can cause the uterus to contract, leading to the start of labour.
