4 mm. Data collection tool was a self-made questionnaire. Demographic findings of the patients and the results of transvaginal sonography, and hystopathologic assessment of endometrium were recorded. Data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 20), and ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis tests. PResults: The most common findings of transvaginal sonography was 37% normal, 30% increased thickness, and 20% endometrial polyp. About 47.3% of histopathologic findings were proliferative, then secretory and endometrial polyps and less than 5% of cases was malignant. There was only one case of adenocarcinoma with 6 mm endometrial thickness. In the estimation of the consistency of sonographic findings with D&C findings, there was significant agreement in abnormal and normal groups (P=0.004). Conclusion: Major and malignant pathologies namely carcinoma and metaplasia can also be detected in cut-off levels less than 8 mm, even around 5 mm. Therefore, use of D&C along with TVUS in low cut-off levels less than 8 mm seems to be necessary.]]>

Conclusion: The use of topical magnesium sulfate on the cervix in the active phase improves effacement and dilatation and shortens the duration of labor. Since there are very few studies on this subject, performing further studies are recommended.]]>

0.05). The mean difference of pain severity on the fifth (p=0.009) and tenth day (p=0.012) after delivery was significant in M. communis cream and placebo cream groups, and the severity of pain was less pain in M. communis cream group. The mean of Reeda score group on the 5th day after delivery was 1.70 ± 1.09 in the M. communis cream group and 2.94 ± 1.51 in the placebo cream group (p<0.001), and on the tenth day after delivery was 1.04 ± 0.854 in the M. communis cream group and 2.06 ± 0.620 in the placebo cream group that was statistically significant (p<0.001).
Conclusion: M. communis cream due to its healing properties accelerates the healing of episiotomy wound and reduces the severity of pain.]]>
