Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Cervidil (dinoprostone) is a medication used to ripen the cervix in preparation for labor induction in women who are at or near term.

Cervidil contains a synthetic form of prostaglandin E2, which helps to soften and thin the cervix, making it easier to dilate and efface during labor. The medication is usually administered vaginally, in the form of a small, flat, rectangular-shaped insert that is placed near the cervix.

The medication is released slowly over time, helping to ripen the cervix gradually.

Cervidil is not used to stimulate the amniotic membranes to rupture, enhance uteroplacental perfusion in an aging placenta, or increase amniotic fluid volume.
