Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is t o evaluate levator ani morphology following normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section (elective and emergent), using three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound, and to study the effect of mode of delivery on female sexual function.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

1. transperineal pelvic floor ultrasound applied for the submitted 120 women "primiparae" (40 women after normal vaginal delivery), (40 women after urgent cesarean section), (40 women after elective cesarean section), in early postpartum period (48 to 72) hours postpartum, to evaluate levator ani morphology.
2. answering of the validated female sexual function index (F.S.F.I) three months postpartum period for same cases submitted to ultrasound.
