Patient's question:
Doctor, please help take a look at whether my wife is good at vaginal birth or cesarean section. Today, she went to the hospital for an ultrasound, and the results showed amniotic fluid level 8, fetal biparietal diameter 96mm, and femur diameter 75mm. The estimated due date is October 29th, which is 6 days overdue. The umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck once, and the fetus is slightly larger. The doctor suggested that we go back and wait, as it is currently possible for a vaginal birth, but so far the contractions have not been too strong, only occasional aching and false labor contractions. I want to know if she is more likely to have a vaginal birth or a cesarean section, as she is a first-time mother.Doctor's answer:
According to the pregnant woman's condition, it is necessary to choose between a natural birth and a cesarean section. Additionally, since the child is slightly larger, it is recommended that a cesarean section is safer. If the treatment opinion is more than two weeks before the due date, hospitalization treatment is required, and a cesarean section should be performed quickly. There are several treatment methods for cesarean sections, but since the patient's condition is different, the diagnostic methods used will also vary. Therefore, patients need to have timely and careful examination and diagnosis in order to provide symptomatic treatment.
