Muscular contractions.
False labor, or Braxton Hicks contractions, refers to irregular and often infrequent contractions of the uterus that can occur during pregnancy. Unlike true labor contractions, Braxton Hicks are typically not painful and do not signal the onset of labor. They are often described as a tightening of the abdomen and can occur at any point in the second or third trimester. These contractions serve to prepare the uterus for the eventual labor process.

It is caused by involuntary muscle contractions.
The preferred term for false labor is "Braxton Hicks contractions." These are irregular and often painless contractions that can occur during pregnancy, typically in the third trimester, and are considered a normal part of preparing the body for labor. Unlike true labor, Braxton Hicks contractions do not lead to cervical dilation or the onset of childbirth.
Oxytocin is the primary chemical that causes contractions in the human body, specifically in the uterus during labor and also in the mammary glands during breastfeeding. Additionally, prostaglandins are also involved in stimulating contractions in various smooth muscles, including those in the uterus.
Oxytocin causes the uterus to contract. Oxytocin is released by the posterior pituitary gland.
