Mostly two-thirds of women who attempt natural delivery after a c-section are successful
According to a new study published in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology clearly suggests that the almost two-thirds of women who attempt for a natural delivery after going through a caesarean section for their first birth are successful. This study was conducted by the Office for Research and Clinical Audit (ORCA) at the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists along with the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. It primarily aimed to examine the factors that actually help to determine the uptake and success rate of vaginal birth after caesarean.
Through this research it has been brought forward that the younger women who are 24 or less have more chances to attempt a VBAC than the women who are above 34 that is 60% and 45% respectively. Black women 62% and Asian women 64% were also found to have higher rate if VBAC attempt rates for their second delivery as compared to white women 49%.
