Summary
This small pilot study tested whether semi-permanent acupuncture at specific points could reduce the need for medical induction of labor in pregnant women at low or moderate risk. Eight participants were split into two groups: one received real acupuncture, the other a simulated version. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
