Side effects of cesarean section for second child

The second child means a second birth. Generally speaking, we can directly perform a sterilization operation during the second child delivery operation, because sterilization also requires an abdominal operation. However, there are certain risks in a cesarean section for a second child, and there will be certain side effects during the sterilization operation, which should be taken seriously. So what are the side effects of cesarean section for a second child?

During childbirth, if a caesarean section is necessary, it is very beneficial for the mother to have her fallopian tubes tied at that time: it saves the mother from having to open her abdomen again for ligation later, and the incision for caesarean section is relatively large, at least 10 cm long, so that the organs in the pelvic cavity are clearly exposed, and it is easy for the doctor to find the fallopian tubes. After the baby is delivered, the incision on the uterus is sutured, and the mother's anesthesia is relatively complete. The doctor only needs to open the abdominal wall incision a little more to the left and right and push the uterus to one side to expose the fallopian tube on the same side. Therefore, it is very easy to pull the fallopian tube out of the abdominal cavity and tie it. Then, the other fallopian tube can be tied in the same way. The ligation of both fallopian tubes can be completed in a few minutes, and the ovaries can be checked to see if they are normal. When doctors perform these operations, the patients rarely feel nausea or discomfort caused by the pulling of internal organs or the turning of intestines.

In this way, the pain suffered by the mother is almost the same as that of a general caesarean section. Even sometimes, the doctor, in order to be responsible to you, will explore your abdominal organs more carefully and clearly to see if there are any small fibroids, cysts or teratomas, etc., and will pull out your uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries for ligation, and it is rare that someone will feel uncomfortable. If it is a normal transabdominal tubal ligation surgery, the incision on the abdomen is only 3-4 cm, and the local infiltration anesthesia is relatively shallow. The female reproductive organs grow deep in the abdominal cavity, covered by the greater omentum and the tortuous small intestine. The doctor has to push aside the intestine and the greater omentum, and finding the fallopian tube is relatively troublesome. Sometimes, the patient will feel uncomfortable and nauseous as the intestines are being tossed around. However, if you want to have a caesarean section and have your fallopian tubes tied at the same time, you must tell the doctor in advance and complete the relevant procedures. If you request it once you are on the operating table, it may be too late.

The postpartum period is within 42 days after birth. During this period, the endometrium gradually repairs and bleeding gradually stops. If you find any abnormalities, go to a specialist hospital for treatment in time. After a cesarean section, just like a natural birth, you should resume sexual life three months after delivery, preferably after you have your period.

If the mother is breastfeeding, the uterus is involutionally good, if there is no more vaginal bleeding, and the doctor checks that the wound is healing well, she can resume sexual life. However, strict contraceptive measures must be taken to avoid pregnancy. You can use condoms or postpartum IUD to avoid pregnancy. Generally speaking, a better contraceptive method is male condoms.

In addition, some women may experience low sexual desire or dissatisfaction with their sexual life after childbirth. They should pay attention to finding the causes and treating them accordingly. It is important to note that you should not have sex within 40 days after a normal birth, and within 2 months after a caesarean section. Also, it is generally possible to get pregnant after ovulation resumes in 10 weeks, and some women may get pregnant without having their period.

Also, be careful to avoid contact with cold water and washing your feet with cold water, avoid eating spicy foods, avoid bathing in a tub, and heavy physical labor, otherwise gynecological inflammation and uterine prolapse are likely to occur. Also, pay attention to rest and eat more high-quality protein foods.
