No. The World Health Organization recommends that cesarean section be performed only if medically justified. The method of delivery of each pregnant woman should be decided independently and according to her medical condition.

I am scheduled to give birth in a hospital or clinic. Is this the right choice?

Women should ask their gynecologist or midwife (or medical staff) where the safest place to give birth is and what precautions are taken for each person according to their situation. The decision depends on the person, his position and the health care system of that country. Most treatment centers have separate facilities, including separate entrances and separate wards for patients with coronary heart disease.
