The drawbacks of a cesarean section are mainly concentrated in three areas. The first is aesthetics, a concern for all women, but this isn't a major issue.
The second drawback is that the surgery leaves scars on the uterus, compromising its integrity. If a local scar heals poorly, it can easily lead to a uterine scar diverticulum, potentially causing incomplete menstrual flow. Furthermore, this increases the future risk of scar pregnancy, placenta implantation, and uterine rupture.
The third drawback is that a cesarean section may cause pelvic adhesions, and the risk of complications in future pregnancies also increases.
Based on these three identified points, clinical work in obstetrics aims to minimize the probability of cesarean sections; some hospitals have even set quotas for them.
Moreover, these are just the harms to the mother's body. This method, which violates natural laws, may also impact the newborn.
