What is more painful C section or natural birth?

Doctor 1

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'm really stressed out because I was supposed to get my period around the time of my surgery, but it hasn't happened. I've been worried about the extraction for about a week. Then, I picked up a cough and cold, along with some digestive issues, and had to take a few antibiotics and steroids. I've never missed a period before, and I'm still a virgin, so this is freaking me out a bit. The last time I had my period was around May 15th. Should I be concerned about this delay? What could be causing it?

I've just turned 23 and I'm a bit worried because I'm missing my periods. Today marks the 8th day they should have started, but there's nothing yet. It's unusual for me since I haven't experienced a delay like this in the past three years. The only time I had a delay was when I traveled abroad in 2013, and it was a 15-day delay. Last month, my period was only three days late. I had protected sex earlier this month, and I even took a pregnancy test, which came out negative. Do you know why this might be happening or when I might get my periods?

Its possible that your period is delayed due to stress, changes in lifestyle, or hormonal fluctuations, especially since youve had a minor delay last month. Since your pregnancy test was negative and youve had protected sex, there's likely no need to worry. Its normal for occasional delays to happen, but if the delay continues or you have other concerns, its a good idea to consult with your doctor.

I had unprotected sex on the 15th of May, the day after my period ended. I took an Unwanted 72 pill afterward, but then my period returned on the 19th of May and hasn't stopped since. I'm 19 years old and really worried about this. What should I do?

It seems like the unwanted 72 pill may have caused a hormonal imbalance leading to prolonged bleeding. I recommend you to take Tranexamic acid 500mg thrice a day for 3-5 days to help stop the excessive bleeding. If the bleeding persists or becomes heavy, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
