Having a cesarean for convenience is dangerous to the health of the mother and baby

Washington, Ta. September 30, 2019, Monday

Any system has its two sides, good and bad. An example of such a system can be called maternity with the help of a caesarean. Cesarean delivery may not be called a revolution in the field of obstetrics, but according to one study, it can have many adverse effects on the health of the mother and the baby.

It is possible to save the life of a pregnant woman or unborn child with the help of a cesarean in complicated circumstances during pregnancy. But at the same time many disadvantages of this method have also been exposed. Experts say there has been a rise in trust among people with caesarean deliveries, but the dangers of this method are also rising.

This option, which can be used in compulsive or complex situations, is currently becoming popular. People are giving more importance to caesarean than just delivery for convenience. The US government raised concerns over high maternity care with caesarean section and launched awareness campaigns.

In the US in 2017, 32 percent of babies were born by cesarean. In India too, the number of births with the help of cesarean is going up.

According to one study, maternity care with cesarean can have serious effects on the health of the mother and the baby. Often these effects occur immediately, while sometimes they may be chronic. In addition, cesarean also affects the child's mental development.

According to the report published in the JAMA Network Open, there is a great deal of distance between cesarean and babies born in general. Caesareans increase the risk of autism for infants by 33 percent. In addition, the risk of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) also increases by 17%. Due to this disorder, children are unable to concentrate on any work.

For the first time, research has been done on the effects of cesarean on children's mental development. However, previous extensive research has documented side effects from caesarean to physical health.

During normal maternity, newborns receive many bacteria from their mothers but do not occur in caesarean section. Cesarean-born children suffer from many health problems, including long-term asthma, obesity, diabetes.
