Abstract
IntroductionThis study aimed to evaluate the impact of sesame oil soft gels on postpartum pain in multiparous women. MethodsA total of 86 multiparous women participated in a randomised, triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The women received a 1.1-g capsule of sesame oil or placebo after vaginal delivery every 6 hours for 24 hours. After-pain was assessed using a pain-o-meter 1 hour after each dose of medication or placebo. ResultsAfter the intervention, the mean scores of pain intensity (P<0.001), emotional pain (P<0.001), physical pain (P<0.001) and total pain (P<0.001) in the group that received sesame oil soft gels were significantly lower than those in the placebo group. ConclusionSesame oil soft gels are affordable, easily available and they have been shown to decrease the severity of after-pains in multiparous women that would reduce the necessity of chemical drugs usage which have various side effects.
