Insurance Coverage for Muscle Repair from C-sections Damage?

angie24
I have had four C-sections and have a few areas in my muscle wall that need to be repaired, beyond cosmetic issues. I am only about 10 pounds over my ideal weight but most of it is in my tummy. Will insurance cover any of the expense due to muscle damage?
