The goal of this clinical trial is to study the efficacy of vaginal versus oral misoprostol solution in cervical ripening for induction of labor.
The main questions it aims to answer is : is Vaginal misoprostol solution as effective as oral misoprostol solution for induction of labor? Researchers will compare oral Misoprostol Solution and vaginal misoprostol solution prepared by KY gel Participants will then be randomized into two groups using a computer-generated randomization list , the first group will receive oral solution equal to 25 microgram misoprostol every 2 hours while the second group will receive 25 microgram vaginal misoprostol solution every 4 hours The cervix will be assessed and scored at each examination. They will be reviewed before the stipulated time if they were contracting. The administration of the drugs will be discontinued when a favorable cervix is diagnosed (modified Bishop score ≥6 ) or 24 hours of study drug had been given.
