The need for anesthesia during childbirth does not vary from one individual to another and needs to be treated differently. After the full term of pregnancy, labor is performed by vaginal delivery and by abdominal cesarean section. Vaginal delivery is the most common and routine method of delivery. Most pregnant women tolerate the abdominal pain caused by uterine contractions well during vaginal delivery and do not need anesthetic drugs. Some women cannot tolerate the pain caused by contractions during labor, in which case they can be given anesthetics for pain relief. The specific method and type of anesthesia should be chosen according to the specific situation of the pregnant woman. In the case of delivery by caesarean section, the procedure must be performed under anesthesia, usually in the form of lumbar anesthesia.
