Cesarean Section (C-Section) in Karnataka

Performed when vaginal delivery would put the mother or baby at risk, including fetal distress, abnormal fetal position, placenta previa or other placental problems, a prior cesarean with contraindication to vaginal birth, labor that fails to progress, or serious maternal conditions like severe preeclampsia.
