Drawbacks of antibiotic regimen following cesarean deliveries on beneficial bacteria in colostrum, a prospective observational study
No significant differences in wound healing outcomes were observed among antibiotic regimens (P = 0.916). Preoperative prophylaxis with Penicillin/β-lactam is recommended, as it minimally disrupts Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria while maintaining aseptic conditions, offering a balanced approach to microbial preservation and infection prevention.
