What Is The Average Thickness Of A C-section Scar?
Hi, my name is Jordan and I went in for an ultrasound. I am 25.5 weeks pregnant and having bleeding with cramping. I have had two previous c-sections and my dr. was concerned about thinning of my scar tissue. What is the average thickness of a scar? And when does it become dangerous? YYYY@YYYY

WELCOME
BLEEDING AT 26 WEEKS WITH CRAMPING MAY OCCUR DUE TO ANTE-PARTUM HEMORRHAGE OR PRETERM LABOUR.
CONFIRM PLACENTAL POSITION BY SONOGRAPHY AND ALSO FETAL WELL BEING.
IF EVERY THING NORMAL, TAKE REST AND AVOID HEAVY WORK.
TAKE REGULAR VISITS.
KEEP WATCH ON FETAL MOVEMENT.
PLEASE CONSULT DOCTOR WITHOUT FAILURE.
THANKS
