In Vladimir, pregnant women will also avoid cesarean section for medical reasons. Doctors intend to convince women to give birth on their own, including during pregnancy with twins, a breech baby and the presence of a uterine scar. The media writes about it. The official goal of such recommendations is to raise the birth rate. But there is also a financial side: after a caesarean section, women stay longer in the hospital, so their treatment costs more in the budget. At the same time, in the Vladimir region there is a shortage of more than half of obstetricians and gynecologists, maternity hospitals in small towns are closing, and about a thousand women go to Moscow every year to give birth.
