Cesarean section (C-section)
Cesarean Section (C-Section) by Dr. Shifa Anwar Panwala
A Cesarean section (C-section) is a safe and commonly performed surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through an incision in the abdomen and uterus. Dr. Shifa Anwar Panwala provides expert, compassionate care—ensuring the safety of both mother and baby while making the experience as calm and reassuring as possible.
A C-section may be planned in advance or performed as an emergency, depending on medical needs. Common reasons include previous cesarean delivery, fetal distress, breech position, multiple pregnancies, placenta-related concerns, or when vaginal delivery is not considered safe.
Dr. Shifa ensures a detailed discussion before the procedure (whenever possible), explaining the reasons, steps involved, and what to expect during and after surgery. The procedure is performed under appropriate anesthesia, and every measure is taken to ensure comfort, safety, and minimal complications.
Post-surgery care focuses on pain management, wound healing, early mobilization, and support with breastfeeding and newborn care. Recovery guidance is provided to help you regain strength and return to daily activities gradually.
At Her Space, your well-being, dignity, and confidence are always prioritized. Dr. Shifa is committed to providing skilled, respectful, and supportive care—helping you feel safe and cared for at every step of your delivery journey.
