Hi
Magic care health user

I will not advise to take premarin tablets for induction of labour .There is a no proven fact available for that.

If you already have finished 40 wks and everything is fine including NST AND LIQUOR QUANTITY than you can wait up to 41 wks for spontaneous onset of labour
If after 41 wks if you didn't get pain than induction can be done through T Misoprstol or Cerviprime gel but not premarin.
I hope my answer help you
Thanks
