In life, many families, after giving birth to a big baby, are afraid that their child will be lonely, so they want to add a second baby. The number of mothers who undergo cesarean section for the same second child may also increase, and some mothers may even have cesarean section for both previous and subsequent births. Does having two cesarean sections affect lifespan?
The frequency of cesarean section does not have a significant impact on a person's lifespan, but it can have an impact on women's physical health. At present, the medical community does not have a very strict limit on the total number of cesarean sections that a person can undergo, but it is generally recommended that the number of cesarean section surgeries should not exceed three. This is because cesarean section has the following hazards:
1. Vaginal atrophy
If there are too many cesarean sections, physical abnormalities will also begin to appear in women after menopause. For example, vaginal atrophy is quite common, which definitely has an impact on marital life.
2. Uterine bleeding
Women who have had too many cesarean sections are more likely to experience uterine atony and have a relatively higher probability of vaginal bleeding during surgery.
3. Amniotic fluid embolism
During cesarean section delivery, amniotic fluid in the uterus can easily enter the bloodstream, causing allergies in women and even leading to amniotic fluid embolism.
4. Infection adhesion
Cesarean section usually has three common infections, namely surgical incision infection, endometritis infection, and urinary tract infection. Moreover, pelvic adhesions are also prone to occur after performing cesarean section surgery.
5. Anesthesia complications
Cesarean section surgery cannot do without anesthesia, but anesthesia carries significant risks, and there is also a high possibility of nerve damage during the procedure.
