Woman dies from excessive bleeding after attempting home birth by watching YouTube videos in Tamil Nadu
A tragic home birth attempt near Uthukuli has resulted in the death of a young woman, Sasikala, from excessive bleeding. Opting for a natural delivery after a previous C-section, she and her family followed YouTube tutorials instead of seeking medical guidance.
