Deferring childbirth until after age of 30 may increase chances of birth interventions - study

New research has asked whether a public health campaign may be needed to inform women that deferring childbirth until after the age of 30 may increase the chances of birth interventions such as Caesarian section delivery.

The study, published in the Irish Journal of Medical Science, explored whether an increase in the number of CS deliveries was linked with being overweight or obese.
