Is there a relationship between caesarean section and ADHD?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my child was born via cesarean section. Now my child has ADHD, and I would like to ask if there is a correlation between cesarean section and ADHD?

Doctor's answer:

ADHD has no direct relationship with cesarean section surgery, because there are many cesarean sections in clinical diagnosis now, and most babies are basically healthy. There are many causes of ADHD, such as intergenerational genetic factors, fetal drowning or breathing difficulties in the womb during pregnancy. Or the baby's growth environment is not good, for example, parents often argue, and the child is in a tense environment for a long time, which can lead to many psychological changes.
