This is highly suspicious to me. Do C-sections follow or cause worse outcomes?
I think there was a distinction made between planned C-sections and unplanned C-sections (medical emergencies), so that they were able differentiate outcomes following emergencies like a breech baby vs a completely planned C-section. And I think it showed that show C-sections overall were more risky than vaginal birth and long term health was better for vaginal births.
I haven't done any google fu on this topic, other than reading a few passages in a book.
