Abstract

Childbirth can be a fantastic experience for the future mother, but it holds risks for mothers and newborns. Vaginal birth is a result of uterine contractions, minus elastic forces, minus friction force. The objective of this study is to evaluate labor duration, perineal outcomes and safety when applying Gynofit in second stage of labor. Study duration was four months, 120 women were included and randomized in four groups. Two doses of Gynofit were applicated (vaginal and perineal dose) and the duration of second stage of labor was read by electronic chronometer. Results divided by groups were shown, that appyling Gynofit during second stage of labor significantly reduces labor duration by 40% in primiparous and multiparous women. Gynofit protects pelvic floor and perineum, is safe, is easy to apply, shows no side effects on mother and child.
