Giving birth in Thailand Public hospital
That in itself is no justification for say it is a preferred method of delivery. My niece is an Obs & Gny surgeon and C sections are her thing. She is extremely busy and it has nothing to do with preference, problems arise for a variety of reasons with many down to lifestyle. Alongside the more common problems there is an increasing number of babies that are growing above the safe size for the Thai pelvis plus both mental health and substance abuse issues are on the increase. You cannot always take stats at face value. Very true... (cannot always take stats at face value) - I'm sure the reason for the increased percentages of C-sections here compared to the west are medically elective and more related to cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD) and generally younger maternal age (under-developed pelvic bones)... which of course distorts the stats, particularly as Thai females are generally smaller. Nevertheless - its long been known that C-Sections are more common in Thailand than they are in many or our western nations - the stats highlight exactly the same, no matter how you want to look at them. Sheryl of course has far more medical experience than I, though I'm surprised she contradicted my comment given the amount of medical professionals I know who have commented on the 'unnecessarily high number of c-sections in hospitals here'.... that said - my sources of information are only: National Stats, and anecdote from a handful of Doctors I'm friends with (dinners / socialising etc - so lots of topics arise). MalcolmB would have argued that C-Sections are more common, If I had mentioned they are less common - so anything he writes is purely fabricated to generate discourse because he's been accused by me way to many times of being a troll and he that doesn't sit well with his childish ego - anything he writes can simply be written off.
