Entonox, or gas and air, is one of the most common and accessible forms of pain relief used during labour. It’s fast-acting, easy to control, and wears off quickly once you stop inhaling.
While it won’t eliminate pain completely, many women find it helps them feel more relaxed and able to cope through each contraction. It can also support rhythmical breathing and reduce anxiety in active labour.
Have you used Entonox before? What was your experience like?
