Cesarean Deliveries, commonly referred to as C-sections, are surgical procedures performed to deliver a baby when a vaginal birth is not possible or poses risks to the mother or baby. Dr. S. Vidhyullatha offers expert care in performing cesarean deliveries, ensuring a safe and smooth experience for both mother and child.

A C-section involves making an incision in the mother’s abdomen and uterus to deliver the baby. This procedure is typically planned in advance if there are known complications or risks, but it can also be performed as an emergency measure if complications arise during labor.

Reasons for Cesarean Deliveries:

  • Placenta Previa: A condition where the placenta is positioned low in the uterus, covering the cervix, making vaginal delivery unsafe.

  • Fetal Distress: If the baby shows signs of distress, such as irregular heartbeats or lack of oxygen, a C-section may be needed to deliver the baby quickly.

  • Breech Position: When the baby is positioned feet-first or bottom-first, a cesarean is often required to ensure a safer delivery.

  • Multiple Pregnancies: In cases of twins, triplets, or more, a cesarean may be the safest way to deliver.

  • Maternal Health Concerns: Conditions like high blood pressure (preeclampsia), gestational diabetes, or infections may necessitate a C-section.

Dr. Vidhyullatha ensures that mothers receive personalized pre- and post-operative care, focusing on the safety of both the mother and the newborn. After the procedure, she provides guidance on recovery and healing, ensuring that patients feel supported throughout their childbirth journey.
