Option 4 : Oxytocin

Concept:

Oxytocin is used as a medication to facilitate child birth. It is released into the bloodstream as a hormone in response to stretching of the cervix and uterus during labor and with stimulation of the nipples from breastfeeding.
Pitocin (oxytocin injection) is a natural hormone that causes the uterus to contract used to induce labor, strengthen labor contractions during childbirth, control bleeding after childbirth, or to induce an abortion.
Oxytocin also is used to reduce bleeding after childbirth.
Oxytocin is in a class of medications called oxytocic hormones.

Explanation:

Oxyocin injection is administered to induce tonic uterine contractions.
This tonic contractions facilitates child birth by giving it a push towards the cervical opening.
In atonic contractions where child birth is least facilitated there is also more bleeding.
In tonic contractions there is polarity in contractions thereby it reduces bleeding to certain extent.
