Which is better, a natural birth or a cesarean section?

Patient's question:

My wife is already 5 months pregnant, and now we are undecided whether to opt for a natural birth or a cesarean section for her. My wife is quite frail and afraid that she won't be able to endure the pain of a natural birth. Whenever I hear women screaming during childbirth on TV, I can't help but think about what will happen to my wife at that time.

Doctor's answer:

It's better to have a natural birth. Go to a good women's and children's hospital, where doctors will give you some advice. Nowadays, hospitals generally advocate for natural birth. While natural birth does carry certain risks, medical technology is quite advanced now. Good hospitals conduct thorough examinations before the delivery. During the process, doctors will handle everything. Moreover, it seems there's a gas that can reduce pain, like laughing gas. You can consult with the gynecology department at the hospital. I strongly recommend a natural birth!!
