Pitocin is not suitable for everyone. Women with the following conditions should avoid Pitocin:
Placenta Previa: Where the placenta covers the cervix. Active Genital Herpes: To prevent transmission to the baby during vaginal delivery. Previous Uterine Surgery: Such as a classical cesarean section, due to the increased risk of uterine rupture. Severe Preeclampsia or Eclampsia: Where labor could exacerbate the condition.
Always consult with a healthcare provider to determine if Pitocin is appropriate for your situation.
