its more expensive, SURGERY= more profit for a hospital/surgeon+ hospital stay, medicaiton,,etc. obviously if the mother has a baby they cant deliver naturally, other than that its an upsell. C-sections also makes the mother have to heal for some years before having another baby.
Well, in civilized countries, it is a health choice taken by doctors based on a benefice/risk analysis. And the cost (of operation and healing) is covered by society. In abusive countries, it is just a matter of profit.
