Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
After a cesarean section, pregnancy should be avoided for at least two years before trying to conceive again. This is because the incision on the uterine wall does not heal well in the short term after a cesarean section. Early pregnancy, due to the fetus's growth causing the uterus to expand continuously, can make the uterine wall thin, especially at the surgical incision site where it is composed of connective tissue with poor elasticity. Fresh scars are easily ruptured during the later stages of pregnancy or delivery, which can lead to severe abdominal bleeding and even threaten life.
