Prevalence of cesarean scar disorder in patients 3 years after a first cesarean section
Our study found a high prevalence of CSDi 3 years following their first CS. Symptoms were self-reported and the exclusion criteria of pregnancy, breastfeeding, or hormonal contraception use could have introduced selection bias. Therefore, this percentage could be an overestimation of the actual prevalence. However, this high prevalence should be included in counseling patients with a scheduled CS.
