Normal range of uterine scar thickness

Because a cesarean section requires the pregnant woman's uterus to be cut open to take out the baby, there will undoubtedly be a scar on the uterus. If you get pregnant again in the late stage, you need to check the condition of the scar, especially in the late stage of pregnancy, you must take proper care to prevent the scar from cracking. What is the standard for the thickness of the uterine scar after the third pregnancy?

If the pregnant woman had caesarean sections for the first two times, the thickness of the uterine scar in the third pregnancy should be more than 3mm, which is safer and less likely to rupture. If the thickness of the pregnant woman's scar is acceptable and there are no problems in all aspects of her body, she can try to choose a natural birth. If the thickness of the uterine scar is less than 2mm, it will be more dangerous and you still need to choose a cesarean section to give birth.

Pregnant women who have had a caesarean section need to wait two years before considering getting pregnant again, and before getting pregnant, they need to undergo a detailed uterine examination to check the condition of the scar, so that they can become pregnant normally only after passing the examination. After pregnancy, you also need to pay attention to the problem of uterine scars. If you find signs of rupture of the scar in the late pregnancy, you need to have a caesarean section immediately.

To sum up, it is still relatively risky for a woman to become pregnant again after two cesarean sections. Scar pregnancy may occur, and there is also a risk of uterine rupture in the late pregnancy. Therefore, pregnant women need to remain vigilant throughout the pregnancy, as uterine rupture will affect the personal safety of pregnant women.

In fact, if the scar of the first caesarean section of the pregnant woman with the second child has healed well, the method of cross-section of the lower uterus can be adopted, and the pregnancy can be completed around 39 weeks of pregnancy. If the recovery is not very good, the pregnancy will end earlier, so the risk of delivery will be greatly reduced. Families who want to have a second child are advised to do a comprehensive examination before getting pregnant to ensure that the uterus has been completely healed and the uterine scar is relatively thick before choosing to get pregnant, which will be safer.
