Is it necessary to do postpartum recovery for cesarean section?

Patient's question:

Is it necessary to do postpartum recovery for cesarean section? Does it help with complete postoperative recovery? What happens if it's not done?

Doctor's answer:

Postpartum pelvic floor rehabilitation is not necessarily required after a caesarean section. It depends on your own complete recovery. If you have a relatively good recovery on your own, you can skip it. You can go to the hospital for a follow-up check-up at 42 days postpartum to see the condition of your complete recovery. If the recovery is not satisfactory, you can consider doing it then as well. Doing appropriate kegel exercises regularly can also help with postpartum recovery.
