A c-section is a major surgery that comes with a lot of risks. The most common complication is infection, which can lead to sepsis, a potentially life-threatening condition. In addition, there is a risk of blood loss, blood clots, and organ damage. For these reasons, many doctors are hesitant to perform c-sections unless it is absolutely necessary. If a woman has already had a c-section, her chances of complications increase significantly. As a result, many doctors will refuse to perform another c-section unless it is medically necessary. While this may seem unfair, it is important to remember that doctors have a responsibility to protect the health of both the mother and the child.
