Gynotal® Obstetric Gel is developed specially to ease vaginal birth, which is highly bioadhesive and has a high water-bindingcapacity.
Gynotal® Obstetric Gel is used during vaginal delivery to make the birth easier for both mother and child, and to protect the perineum.
Gynotal® Obstetric Gel is sterile, non- allergenic, electro-conductive, slightly acidic kind on mucous membranes and eyes.
Gynotal® Obstetric Gel is introduced into the vagina by the obstetrician or midwife from the moment of the first vaginal examination, or if the waters have broken and all the amniotic fluid has been discharged.
A special applicator is used so thisis not unpleasant for the mother or for the unborn child. The sterile Gynotal® set contains different compositions of the gel, which can be applied by the obstetrician or midwife several times during dilation or expulsion.
The gel forms a smooth bio-adhesive film on the vagina, which serves to reduce friction.
In nulliparous women, Gynotal® Obstetric Gel was found to shorten the expulsion stage by %30 (26min) and also to shorten the total duration of the birth by %30 (106min). Gynotal® also aids and eases deliveries for which a vacuum pump or forceps are used.
