What is more painful C section or natural birth?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Vaginal delivery is the most common and safest type of childbirth. You'll probably hear the term “natural childbirth” .The risk for discomfort after the birth is greater due to normal and expected surgical pain along the incision and abdominal soreness. These discomforts can last for several months. There is an increased risk for rupture of the C-section scar during subsequent deliveries and subsequent pregnancies.

I've been diagnosed with a few myoma tumors in my uterus and I'm really worried is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can explore? I'd love to understand my choices better
