- Turkey’s Ministry of Health imposed fines and suspensions on more than 100 obstetricians for performing Caesarean sections.
- These actions support President Erdogan’s campaign promoting natural births and aiming to lower the country’s C-section frequency.
- In 2023, Turkey recorded about 615 Caesarean procedures per 1,000 live births, the highest rate among 38 OECD countries.
- Medical experts argue that the persistently high C-section rate reflects systemic healthcare challenges that penalties alone cannot resolve.
Turkey’s caesarean birth rate exceeds 60 per cent. But the method of delivery reflects various problems within Turkey’s healthcare system.— Dr Ayşe Gultekingil, a top official at the Turkish Medical Association (TTB), told BirGun that the high Caesarean rate is structural and reflects problems within Turkey’s healthcare system.
