Is vaginal birth after cesarean section (VBAC) okay?

  China has always been a country with a high rate of cesarean births, up to 50% or more according to the literature. With the change in the national policy of family planning, more and more women are considering having a second baby, and for those women who have experienced a cesarean birth, many are considering whether they can try a vaginal birth. The answer is yes. In the 1980s, as the cesarean rate in the United States increased dramatically from 5% to 20%, more and more obstetricians and gynecologists began to try vaginal birth after cesarean, and they also achieved good results. However, because total uterine rupture (0.87%) occurred during the attempted vaginal birth after cesarean, which seriously endangered the health of the mother and child, the rate of VBAC decreased, so the American Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology has stipulated issues such as the human setup available in hospitals that perform VBAC, which has remained at about 10% in recent years. Therefore, if you are thinking about VBAC, you should start talking to your obstetrician early in your pregnancy to inform him or her of the risks of VBAC and to fully evaluate the success rate of VBAC.
