C-Section Underwear

The period following a cesarean section, as well as postnatal recovery in general, places special demands on the body. The healing process can be sensitive and gradual, which is why every detail of intimate garments becomes essential for comfort, protection, and effective support. Norseli high-waisted shaping underwear is designed precisely to meet these needs.

Made from a high-performance compressive fabric, the underwear provides structural support in the abdominal, lumbar, and waist areas, helping stabilize the muscles and promote a more comfortable recovery. The abdominal area features targeted compression that helps reduce inflammation, swelling, and the sensation of pressure, while supporting weakened abdominal muscles.

Comfortable and shaping

The upper part is equipped with an anti-slip silicone band that keeps the garment securely in place without rolling or bunching. The lower part is made from breathable piqué fabric, and the cotton insert in the intimate area ensures hygiene, breathability, and all-day comfort. The materials help reduce bacteria, perspiration, and unpleasant odors, providing a constant feeling of freshness—even during sensitive recovery periods.

Norseli underwear can be worn both after a cesarean section and after natural childbirth, also serving as discreet shaping underwear ideal for contouring the silhouette. The design allows for quick front opening, facilitating easy bathroom access and the application of local treatments without discomfort.

This product does not replace a postnatal belt, but it represents a valuable complementary support in the recovery process.

Choosing the right size

If you order the product during pregnancy, choose one size larger than your pre-pregnancy size so that you can use it from the first days after surgery.

If you order a few days after the cesarean section, choose the size you wore before pregnancy, so you can wear it once postoperative swelling begins to subside.

Recommendations

The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics recommends the use of postnatal support garments as an effective, simple, and non-pharmacological option for relieving discomfort after cesarean birth.
