Parturition is the process of delivery of the foetus. It is induced by a complex neuroendocrine mechanism. The signals for parturition originates from the foetus and the placenta which induces mild uterine contractions called foetal ejection reflex. It triggers release of oxytocin from the maternal pituitary. Oxytocin acts on the uterine muscle and causes stronger uterine contractions, which in turn stimulates further secretion of oxytocin. The stimulatory reflex between the uterine contraction and oxytocin secretion continues resulting in stronger and stronger contractions. This leads to expulsion of the baby out of the uterus through the birth canal.
