What is gynaecology and obstetrics?

Gynaecology and obstetrics are twin subjects that deal with the female reproductive system.

• Obstetrics deals with pregnancy and its associated procedures and complications.
• Gynaecology involves treating women who are not pregnant. Gynecology comprises both medicines as well as surgical fields.

What is Painless Normal Delivery?

Painless normal delivery or delivery with labor analgesia (Epidural) is a technique where a very specific concentration of a drug is used. Although the drug reduces the pain, it maintains the ability to push your baby out through the birth canal.

Advantages of Epidural Analgesia or Painless Normal Delivery –

1. Less postpartum complications: By alleviating pain, it allows the mother to focus on the delivery. It is an aid for relaxation and can prevent exhaustion and irritation experienced by most women during childbirth, thereby reducing the risk of developing postpartum complications.
2. Relaxes the muscles while delivery: Epidural analgesia helps the baby descend easily by relaxing the pelvic and vaginal muscles.
3. Lowers blood pressure of the mother: It also helps in lowering the blood pressure of the mother, which otherwise can rise to dangerous levels during labour.
4. Beneficial for mothers with cardiac complications: Heavy pain may affect those mothers who have a history of cardiac complications or who are experiencing heart problem. In such cases, the painless delivery will be favourable.
5. Less secretion of stress hormones: Due to the excessive torment and pain, the mother secrets more stress hormones which cause a great deal of irritation and distress to the child as well as the mother. Since, Epidural analgesia reduces the pain and torment, the amount of hormones produced will be very less and hence, both mother and child can be comfortable.
6. Comfortable delivery option for elderly mothers (more than 30 years): The threshold of bearing pain decreases with aging. Hence, elderly mothers can take the advantage of normal child delivery with epidural analgesia or the painless delivery option.

What is a caesarean section:

A C-section also called a caesarean section or caesarean delivery, is a surgical procedure in which a baby is delivered through incisions in your abdomen and uterus. It is performed when a safe vaginal delivery is not possible, or when the health of the mother or baby is at risk.

When would I need a C-section?

Pregnant women may need a C-section if she has certain medical conditions or if complications occur during labour in a vaginal delivery. A planned C-section happens when any of the following conditions exist:

• Cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD): CPD is a term that means that your baby’s head or body is too large to pass safely through your pelvis, or your pelvis is too small to deliver an average-sized baby.
• Previous C-section: Although it’s possible to have a vaginal birth after a previous C-section, it’s not an option for everyone. Factors that can affect this include the type of uterine incision used in the previous C-section and the risk of uterine rupture.
• Expecting multiples: Although twins can often be delivered vaginally, two or more babies might require a C-section.
• Placenta previa: In this condition, the placenta is attached too low in your uterus and blocks your baby’s exit through your cervix.
• Transverse lie: The baby is in a horizontal, or sideways, position in your uterus.
• Breech presentation: In a breech presentation, your baby’s feet- or bottom-first in your uterus. Some providers may attempt to turn your baby, but a C-section will be necessary if that’s unsuccessful.
• Health conditions: Conditions like heart disease could worsen with labor during a vaginal birth. A C-section is necessary if you have genital herpes at the time of delivery.
• Obstruction: A large uterine fibroid, a pelvic fracture or you’re expecting a baby with certain congenital anomalies may also be reasons for a C-section.

An emergency Caesarean section delivery might be necessary if any of the following conditions arise during your labor:

• Labor isn’t progressing: Also called prolonged labor, this means your cervix dilates and stops, doesn’t efface (or thin) or your baby stops moving down the birth canal.
• Umbilical cord compression: The umbilical cord is looped around your baby’s neck or body or caught between your baby’s head and your pelvis.
• Umbilical cord prolapses: The umbilical cord comes out of your cervix before your baby does.
• Placental abruption: The placenta separates from the wall of your uterus before your baby is born.
• Foetal distress: Your baby might develop problems that cause an irregular heart rate during labor. Your obstetrician might decide that the baby can no longer tolerate labor and that a C-section is necessary.

What is high risk pregnancy:

A high-risk pregnancy is a condition that threatens the health or life of the pregnant mother or her foetus. It often requires specialized care from specially trained.

Minimally Invasive Gynaecologic Surgery:

Minimally Invasive Gynaecologic Surgery involves the use of less invasive techniques, such as Minimally Invasive Gynaecologic Surgery involves the use of less invasive techniques, such as laparoscopy or hysteroscopy.

The benefits of Minimally Invasive Gynaecologic Surgery are:

• smaller incisions,
• less blood loss,
• lesser post-operative pain,
• shorter hospital stays,
• and early recovery and faster return to work.
