How long a cesarean section takes depends on the condition of the mother to be delivered and the level of the doctor’s surgery, so it needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis and cannot be generalized. If you count from the time you enter the operating room to the time you are pushed out of the operating room, it may take about 2 hours, while the actual operation may take about 0.5 to 1 hour. Once the mother is in the operating room, the first step is for the anesthesiologist to administer an epidural. After the anesthesia is successful, the main surgeon starts opening the abdomen layer by layer, exposing the uterus, making a transverse incision in the lower part of the uterus, then removing the fetus, then stripping the placenta, aspirating the amniotic fluid, then sterilizing the uterine cavity, after that suturing the whole uterus, then closing the abdomen layer by layer, then the operation is over, and then transferring the patient to the ward for further observation. If the woman to be delivered is obese, the surgical field may not be well exposed and the operation may take relatively longer. In addition, if a previous cesarean section has been performed, there may be some adhesions in the pelvis and the operation time may be relatively longer.
