About this trial

The objective of this interventional study is to compare the effectiveness, safety, and patient satisfaction associated with two commonly used methods of labor induction: low-dose oral misoprostol and the vaginal delivery system with dinoprostone.

The study aims to identify the most suitable induction method for specific subgroups of patients based on parity, body mass index (BMI), age, and cervical ripeness, as well as assess patient preferences for these induction methods.
