When people say sex induces labor

Question

Do you mean ... 
the actual act of sex (penis going in and out) 
The semen going inside you 
Or an orgasm 
Cause I don’t orgasm during sex but I’ll sure do it alone lol. Trying to get ideas to help this baby on out. I’m miserable

Answer

Orgasms help with contractions bc it makes the uterus spasm, sperm helps soften the cervix.

Answer

There’s a chemical in sperm that helps thin and dilate the cervix and orgasming releases the hormone that causes contractions.

Answer

Orgasms release oxytocin which could possibly bring on contractions and sperm has prostaglandins in it that can soften the cervix over time.
