What Are the Causes of Tight Uterine Contractions?
Several factors can contribute to tight uterine contractions:
- [Oxytocin](): Excessive or inappropriate administration of oxytocin to induce or augment labor. - [Uterine Overdistension](): Overstretching of the uterus due to multiple pregnancies or excessive amniotic fluid. - [Placental Abruption](): Premature detachment of the placenta from the uterus. - [Infection](): Intrauterine infections can lead to inflammation and hypertonicity.
