This study aims to explore the impact of three different suturing techniques (Running, Interrupted & Locked) that used to close the uterine incision at the cesarean section on the formation of a cesarean scar niche

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group (A) | Experimental | Interrupted Sutures: The first layer of the uterine incision will be closed using individual, separate sutures placed at regular intervals along the incision line. Each suture will be tied independently, ensuring adequate apposition of uterine tissue, followed by a second layer of running continuous sutures. |
|
| Group (B) | Experimental | Locked Sutures: The first layer of the uterine incision will be closed using continuous sutures placed along the uterine incision, incorporating a locking technique at specified intervals to prevent unraveling. The knots will be securely tied to maintain tissue approximation, followed by a second layer of running continuous sutures. |
|
| Group (C) | Experimental | Running Continuous Sutures: Double layer closure of uterine incision using running continuous suture used to close the uterine incision without interruption, providing seamless tissue approximation throughout the incision length. |

| Interrupted Sutures | Procedure | The first layer of uterine incision will be closed using individual, separate sutures placed at regular intervals along the incision line. Each suture will be tied independently, ensuring adequate apposition of uterine tissue, followed by a second layer of running continuous sutures. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Presence of caesarean scar niche and its dimensions. | Follow-up visits will be scheduled at 6-12 weeks post-cesarean section to assess caesarean section niche formation using trans-vaginal ultrasound using Samsung Elite with endovaginal probe of frequency 6 - 12 MHz. Trained sonographers, blinded to the participants' suturing group, will perform the ultrasound examinations to evaluate caesarean section niche presence and its dimensions. | 6-12 weeks post-cesarean section |
