C-section is a surgical procedure determined to safely deliver the baby. The procedure can be planned and could be performed on an emergency basis to save the life of the unborn and the mother. When a vaginal delivery can’t be possible due to risks and complications like over bleeding, acute pain, infection, pelvic organ prolapse etc. In this situation gynecologists opt for the cesarean section treatment on the patient. Â
This surgery is performed under the team of medical experts and the procedure is led by an experienced gynecologist, he/she carefully makes incisions or make cuts on the abdominal part to deliver the baby from the mother’s womb. Once the baby is out of the womb all incisions are stitched. Hence, cesarean section is a safe method to deliver a child. However, it may pose a few risks in rare cases for the mother. Â
Why is C-Section Delivery Needed?
C-section surgery is needed in several situations that are mentioned below:

- Certain Conditions in Mother: Certain medical conditions in mothers like HIV, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc, also leads to c-section delivery procedures.Â
- Twins Or Multiple Fetuses: If the doctors found multiple fetus or twin babies in the ultrasound test then they suggest c-section delivery in order to avoid complications and further risks.Â

C-Section Treatment Procedure
When vaginal delivery poses risks on the mother’s health then the c-section surgery is determined by the doctors in order to prevent the life of mothers and the child. Here mentioned the whole procedure of the c-section.
Pre-Procedure
After consultation doctors do all the necessary tests before the surgery, then give the mild anesthesia to the mother in the spinal block to numb the lower part of the body. They gave anesthesia so the mother could awake but not feel the pain. Â
During ProcedureÂ
After the anesthesia short, 10 to 15 cm horizontal incisions are made by the surgeon on the abdominal part of the mother. Then a second incision is made in the uterus part to carefully carry out the baby from the womb. Once the baby is gently lifted out of the uterus the umbilical cord is cut down. When the baby is delivered the placenta is removed from the uterus and the incisions are closed through stitches. The whole procedure usually takes around 20 to 40 minutes. However, it can also take 1 hour in rare cases.Â
