Guest guest Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 Caesarean cuts ruin fertility Women who bear their first child by caesarean section are less likely to conceive again than those who go for natural births. They may also have a complicated pregnancy. A 17-year study, which followed over 25,000 women, found that those who had delivered their firstborn through a caesarean operation were nine per cent less likely to conceive again compared with those who had a natural delivery. According to the study reported in the New Scientist, caesarian operations increase the risk of pregnancy-related deaths. The scientists are not sure about the reasons, but the guess is that operations bring about biological changes to pelvic organs that prejudice fertility. http://www.telegraphindia.com/1050815/asp/knowhow/story_5104989.asp#1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
