Broad layers of the population of almost all ages and social groups still sincerely believe that Sex during pregnancy can stimulate the labor and delivery. But Malaysian scientists have not found such a link. This is despite the fact that some experts have even brought a scientific basis of the theory.
It is believed that the semen contains prostaglandin hormone-like substance, which is used in synthetic form to stimulate contractions. In addition, some scientists believe that the beginning of childbirth can cause orgasm and nipple stimulation. Malaysian researchers believe that these views were born because of the "very old prejudice that sex at a later stage is not safe."
Researchers invited 1,100 women with gestation of 35 to 38 weeks (average pregnancy lasts 40 weeks). None of them had sexual intercourse during the six weeks prior to the study. Approximately half of the women doctors often advised to have sex with their husbands in order to expedite delivery and half said that making love in this period are safe, but their impact on the birth is not known.
Then scientists could only trace how long pregnancy for all women. The first group followed the advice of doctors 85% of the participants (and they are doing it quite active), and the second 80% (much less active). But here pregnancy in both groups lasted, in middleweight, 39 weeks, while the level induced genera amounted 22%. It and has allowed come to a conclusion about what Sex during pregnancy It does not in itself stimulates labor.
