Brief Answer:
Previous cesarean is a dangerous situation

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I would like explain in detail. Please read carefully:

1) Previous cesarean section delivery always has a risk factor for abortion.

2) You have to get an ultrasound scan done to check location and size of pregnancy.

3) Taking cytolog without ultrasound scan could belife threatening for her.

4) Please opt for a suitable method of pregnancy termination after ultrasound scan under a good gynecologist.

Let me know if you have any more doubts.
