Cutting the perineum during childbirth, known as an episiotomy, is done in some cases to prevent tearing in the perineal area and facilitate a smoother childbirth. It is performed when the risk of tearing is high or when there are concerns about the safety of the mother or baby during delivery. However, routine use of episiotomies has declined in recent years as evidence has shown that they are not always necessary and natural tearing may heal better than surgical incisions.
