The choice of the type of delivery should be based on medical considerations and personal preferences, discussed with the healthcare team.
In Italy, women have the right to be informed about the different ways of giving birth and to actively participate in decisions regarding their birth path. However, the choice must take into account medical conditions, possible complications and the recommendations of healthcare professionals to ensure the safety of mother and child.
