Patient's question:
Doctor, my sister is already 29 years old this year. She has had two children, both of whom were delivered via cesarean section. However, she still wants another child and is worried that it might be another cesarean section. So, she wants to ask if it is possible to have three cesarean sections?Doctor's answer:
A cesarean section is generally limited to a maximum of three times, but the risk increases significantly with the third one. You may consider going to the hospital for an ultrasound first to check the condition of the uterine incision for cesarean section and the degree of fibrosis. If it is not severe, you can follow the doctor's advice, have regular prenatal check-ups after getting pregnant. It may be necessary to have an early cesarean section in the later stages. If the degree of fibrosis is too severe and it is not suitable for pregnancy, then you should not have any more children.
