Pros and Cons of a Vaginal vs Caesarean Birth

Is there an optimal way to give birth and as a society do we have an obligation to educate women on the long-term health outcomes of both forms of delivery?

 

Today we have Obstetrician Dr Peter Jurcevic join us and we ask the question: is a vaginal delivery or c-section a better birth option?

 

In today's episode we ask what the pros and cons of both a vaginal and c-section birth are. We talk about birth pain, recovery and lifelong effects on a woman's anatomy and lifestyle, and pelvic and mental health. We discuss society stigma around mode of delivery and ask what is a more favourable form of delivery.
