Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Cesarean section?

A Cesarean section, also known as a C-section, is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through incisions made in the mother's abdomen and uterus.

When is a Cesarean section necessary?

A Cesarean section may be necessary if:

  • There are complications during pregnancy, such as a high-risk pregnancy, placenta previa, or fetal distress.

  • There is an abnormal fetus presentation (not head down).

  • There is a cephalopelvic disproportion.

What are the risks of a Cesarean section?

The risks of a Cesarean section include infection, bleeding, damage to surrounding organs, and prolonged recovery time.

How is a Cesarean section performed?

A Cesarean section is performed under anaesthesia, and incisions are made in the mother's abdomen and uterus to deliver the baby.

What are the different types of Cesarean sections?

The different types of Cesarean sections include:

  • Lower Segment Cesarean Section (LSCS): This is the most commonly used type of Cesarean section. A transverse incision is made in the lower uterine segment above the attachment of the urinary bladder to the uterus.

  • Upper Segment Cesarean Section (Classic CS): The incision is done in the upper uterine segment, which is always vertical.

How is anaesthesia administered during a Cesarean section?

Anaesthesia is usually administered through either an epidural or spinal block, which numbs the lower part of the body, or general anaesthesia, where the whole body goes numb.

How long does a Cesarean section procedure usually take?

A Cesarean section procedure usually takes anywhere between 45 minutes to an hour and can be longer, depending on the extent of the condition.

How long is the recovery time for a Cesarean section?

The recovery time for a Cesarean section is typically 4 to 6 weeks, called puerperium. But with advanced technology, it is almost equivalent to normal delivery.

What can I expect during the recovery period after a Cesarean section?

During recovery, you may experience pain, fatigue, and difficulty with mobility.

How can I care for my incision site after a Cesarean section?

You can care for your incision site by keeping it clean and dry, avoiding strenuous activity, and taking pain medication as prescribed.

Can I breastfeed after a Cesarean section?

Yes, you can breastfeed after a Cesarean section.

How can I increase my chances of having a successful VBAC?

You can increase your chances of having a successful VBAC by choosing an experienced healthcare provider at a fully equipped tertiary service centre, preparing for labour, and being informed about your options. Do your research and avoid consulting hospitals offering low-cost delivery or inexperienced providers, as they may put your or your baby's health at risk.

What is an emergency Cesarean section?

An emergency Cesarean section is performed when there is an urgent need to deliver the baby, such as fetal distress or excessive maternal bleeding.

How is an emergency Cesarean section different from an elective Cesarean section?

An emergency Cesarean section is performed immediately due to urgent medical needs, while an elective Cesarean section is planned in advance.

What are the indications for an emergency Cesarean section?

The indications for an emergency Cesarean section include fetal distress, cord prolapse, placenta previa, and uterine rupture.

Can I request a Cesarean section even if it is not medically necessary?

Yes, you can request a Cesarean section even if it is not medically necessary, but your provider may advise against it.

Can I have skin-to-skin contact with my baby after a Cesarean section?

Yes, skin-to-skin contact with your baby after a Cesarean section is possible and encouraged, as it helps with bonding and breastfeeding.

What are the psychological effects of having a Cesarean section?

The psychological effects of having a Cesarean section can vary, but some women may experience disappointment, loss, or failure if they were hoping for a vaginal birth.

Can a Cesarean section affect my ability to have children in the future?

In most cases, a Cesarean section does not affect a woman's ability to have children in the future.

Can a Cesarean section lead to infertility?

No, a Cesarean section does not lead to infertility.

What are the long-term risks associated with Cesarean section?

Some long-term risks associated with Cesarean section include increased risk of placenta previa, uterine rupture, and abnormal placental attachment in subsequent pregnancies.

How does a Cesarean section affect breastfeeding?

A Cesarean section can affect breastfeeding in some women, as it may take longer for milk to come in and positioning for breastfeeding may be more difficult.

Can I have a vaginal birth after multiple Cesarean sections?

In some cases, it may be possible to have a vaginal birth after multiple Cesarean sections, but this decision should be made in consultation with a healthcare provider.

How can I prepare for a Cesarean section?

To prepare for a Cesarean section, it is necessary to follow your healthcare provider's instructions, ask questions, and make a birth plan that takes into account your preferences.

What is a Cesarean section scar?

A Cesarean section scar is a scar that forms on the skin and/or uterus after a C-section.

How can I reduce the appearance of my Cesarean section scar?

To reduce the appearance of a Cesarean section scar, you can apply scar-reducing creams, undergo laser treatments, or consider surgical scar revision.

Can I have a Cesarean section with twins if one baby is in a breech position?

Yes, it is possible to have a Cesarean section with twins if one baby is in a breech position. However, the decision will depend on several factors, including the position of the second baby, the gestational age, and the health of both the mother and babies. In some cases, it may be possible to attempt a vaginal delivery if the first baby is in the head-down position and the second baby is in the breech position.

What is the difference between a low transverse incision and a classical incision in Cesarean section?

A low transverse incision is a horizontal incision made in the lower part of the uterus during a Cesarean section. This type of incision is preferred as it is associated with less bleeding, fewer complications, and a lower risk of uterine rupture during future pregnancies. A classical incision, on the other hand, is a vertical incision made in the upper part of the uterus. It is usually used in emergency situations or if the baby is in an abnormal position. However, a classical incision is associated with a higher risk of bleeding, infection, and uterine rupture in future pregnancies.

Can a Cesarean section prevent pelvic floor disorders?

No, a Cesarean section cannot prevent pelvic floor disorders. Pelvic floor disorders such as pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence may occur after vaginal delivery and Cesarean section. However, studies have shown a lower risk of pelvic floor disorders after a Cesarean section than vaginal delivery.
