C-sections may increase your risk of developing placenta previa in future pregnancies.

Scar tissue in the uterus can increase the risk of placenta previa, so although a c-section is typically necessary for a safe delivery it can also increase your chances of developing placenta previa in future pregnancies. Fibroid removal and dilation and curettage (D&C) are other procedures that increase the risk of placenta previa.
