There was a scarcity of data on cesarean surgery (CS) and its associated factorsin Africa and other poor nations. The purpose of this study was to find out how commoncesarean surgery (CS) was, as well as the associated obstetric and non-obstetriccharacteristics, among women who gave birth at Jinja Regional Referral Hospital. Aretrospective descriptive research was utilized to collect data, which was then counted andcategorized using frequencies and percentages. The study discovered that 5.7% (22) of the384 women participating in the study between September 1st and December 31st deliveredby cesarean, whereas 94.3% (362) delivered via cesarean. The prevalence in my study was5.7%. The Women between the ages of 16 and 20 and those beyond the age of 41 were themost likely to undergo cesarean surgery (CS). As a result, the majority of mothers who hadcesareans during this time period were between the ages of 16 and 20 and over 40.
