Answer by Dr Bhupinder K, MD (doctor) on Fri 01, May 2009 11:43pm:

Hello, The time taken for labor pains after induction depend on the position of the head of the baby,the effacement of the cervix, the general and pelvis condition of the mother and the method of induction used.If prostaglandins are used then it may take hours and if artificial rupture of membranes is done or oxytocin is used then it may begin a little early. Hope it helps.Take care and regards.
