Article Abstract
Women who deliver by cesarean section CS differ significantly from those who deliver vaginally regarding their childbirth experience. Those who deliver by CS are often less satisfied with their experience, and with themselves. They experience a feeling of resentment towards the physician, profound disappointment at the treatment expectation and loss of the happy moment of natural birth leading to postpartum depression. Cesarean delivery carries considerable disadvantages in terms of pain and trauma of an abdominal operation and complications associated with it. However, the CS rate is constantly on the rise. Hence, there is a need to evaluate the views of women undergoing cesarean deliveries and to ascertain the role of women in decision making regarding mode of delivery. This is a review of studies investigating the views of women from different countries towards CS and presents the view points of Saudi women regarding this.
