Dinoprostone is a gel or suppository that is placed directly onto the cervix through the vagina using a special applicator.
A healthcare provider will give you this medication. Dinoprostone is usually given while you are lying on your back. Your doctor may use a vaginal speculum to view your cervix. This will help your doctor determine how much of this medication to use. You will need to remain lying down for at least 15 minutes unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
Your contractions and your baby's heartbeat will be constantly monitored after you are treated with dinoprostone. Your doctor will also check your cervix frequently to determine how much it has dilated. If your uterus responds to dinoprostone, you may begin having regular uterine contractions within a few hours. You may also be given other medications to help stimulate your uterine contractions and make them more regular.
If your uterus does not respond to dinoprostone within 6 hours, your doctor may apply a second dose.
