Introduction to caesarean section and its types Caesarean section is actually giving birth to a baby through surgery of the mother's abdomen and uterus. In some cases, the date of cesarean delivery is predetermined, which is called planned cesarean section. Sometimes these planned cesarean sections can be elective. In other cases, surgery is performed due to an unforeseen event. If you or your baby are in danger, you will have an emergency caesarean section. According to statistics, in Iran, 47% of births are performed by cesarean section. **The reasons that may cause a predicted caesarean section are as follows:** 1. Not turning properly and not positioning the fetal head towards the birth canal 2. Existence of chronic and dangerous heart diseases in the pressure of natural childbirth 3. The presence of an infection that can be transmitted to the fetus, such as genital herpes 4. Multiple pregnancy and possibly in the delivery of the second child 5. The existence of a previous cesarean section and the impossibility of natural childbirth Risks of caesarean section - Surgical site infection - Injuring the mother or the baby - Venous thrombosis, formation of a blood clot in the mother's legs or lungs - Side effects of anesthesia such as nausea, vomiting, severe headache and back pain - Increasing the prevalence of respiratory disorders in newborns due to premature delivery - Increased risk of placenta previa or placenta adhesion in the next pregnancy - Severe blood loss due to increased bleeding more than twice normal delivery #### Dr. Siddiqa Akhan Tabib **Surgeon and specialist in gynecology, childbirth and infertility** **Office:** Valiasr Street, below Vali Asr Square, Voldi Street, No. 21, 1st floor Set time Tel: 021-88938793 ###### Dr. Akhwan Tabib, Dr. Akhwan, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Valiasr Street, Gynecologist, Valiasr Square, Dr. Sediqah Akhwan, Dr. Sediqah Akhwan, Doctor, Dr. Siddiqa Akhwan, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist, Gynecologist,
