Can a sweet snack kickstart labor? researchers test dates

NCT ID NCT07058792

Summary

This study is testing whether eating Medjool dates daily from 34 weeks of pregnancy helps labor start on its own, reducing the need for medical induction. Researchers will compare labor and delivery outcomes in 250 pregnant people who either eat dates or receive standard care. The study also looks at how date consumption might affect the length of labor and other delivery factors.
