At 38 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is essentially mature and a cesarean section can be performed to terminate the pregnancy if indications for a cesarean section are present. At 38 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus has basically matured in the uterine cavity, and the birth of the fetus can be called a full-term newborn. If the pregnant woman has serious complications or comorbidities, pelvic abnormalities, macrosomia, transverse vaginal septum, placenta praevia, umbilical cord prolapse, placenta previa, transverse position, cephalopelvic disproportion, and other indications for cesarean section, a cesarean section may be performed to terminate the pregnancy. If there is no indication for cesarean section at 38 weeks of pregnancy, a vaginal trial of labor can be performed under the guidance of a professional obstetrician and gynecologist, and if the indication for cesarean section arises in the course of the vaginal trial of labor, a cesarean section may be required to deal with the pregnancy.
