What is an "episiotomy"?

An episiotomy is a surgical procedure performed during childbirth where a small cut is made in the vaginal area to help deliver the baby more easily. This cut is made between the vaginal opening and the rectum to create more space for the baby to pass through. After the delivery, the cut is stitched up, and the stitches usually dissolve on their own. An episiotomy is done to prevent severe tearing and can help with a quicker delivery, though it is not always necessary and may be used based on the situation and the healthcare provider’s evaluation.
