چکیده

مقدمه: دیسپارونی، شایع‌ترین مشکل جنسی دوره پس از زایمان است. احتمال اثربخشی رازیانه در پیشگیری و درمان دیسپارونی بعد از زایمان با توجه به ترکیبات و خواص رازیانه وجود دارد، مطالعه حاضر با هدف بررسی تأثیر رازیانه بر پیشگیری از دیسپارونی پس از زایمان در زنان نخست‌زا انجام شد.
روشکار: در این مطالعه کارآزمایی بالینی تصادفی شده­ سه­ سوکور که از دی 1397 تا اردیبهشت 1398 انجام شد، 76 زن نخست­زای مراجعه‌کننده به مراکز خدمات جامع سلامت شهر رفسنجان، 2 هفته بعد از زایمان به‌صورت در دسترس انتخاب و به­ طور تصادفی به دو گروه 38 نفره دریافت‌کننده کپسول 500 میلی­ گرمی رازیانه 2 بار در روز به‌مدت 8 هفته و گروه دارونما تخصیص یافتند. 4 و 8 هفته بعد از مداخله، هر دو گروه از نظر دیسپارونی با مقیاس مارینوف مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند. تجزیه و تحلیل داده­ ها با استفاده از نرم‌افزار آماری SPSS (نسخه 21) و آزمون ­های کای اسکوئر، تی مستقل و تی زوجی انجام شد. میزان p کمتر از 05/0 معنی‌دار در نظر گرفته شد.
یافته­ ها: میانگین نمره­ دیسپارونی 4 هفته بعد از مداخله در گروه رازیانه و دارونما به‌ترتیب 61/0±69/0 و 69/0±83/0 (430/0=p) و 8 هفته بعد از مداخله 57/0±50/0 و 65/0±70/0 (211/0=p) بود. اختلاف میانگین نمره دیسپارونی 4 و 8 هفته بعد از زایمان در گروه مداخله از نظر آماری معنادار بود (011/0=p). این اختلاف بین دو گروه معنادار نبود.
نتیجه ­گیری: مصرف کپسول 500 میلی‌گرمی رازیانه 2 بار در روز از هفته دوم بعد از زایمان در پیشگیری از دیسپارونی بعد از زایمان تأثیری ندارد. مطالعات بیشتر در این زمینه پیشنهاد می‌شود.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Dyspareunia is the most common sexual problem in the postpartum period. Considering the composition and properties of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), there is a probability of its effectiveness in the prevention and treatment of postpartum dyspareunia. The present study was performed aimed to evaluate the effect of fennel on the prevention of postpartum dyspareunia in primiparous women.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial study was conducted on 76 primiparous women referred to Rafsanjan Comprehensive Health Service Centers from January 2017 to May 2018. They were randomly selected as available two weeks after delivery and divided into two groups (n=38 in each group) of receiving 500 mg fennel capsules twice a day for 8 weeks and placebo group. Four and eight weeks after the intervention, both groups were examined in terms of dyspareunia by the Marinoff scale. Data were analyzed by SPSS (version 21) and paired-T and Independent t-test and Chi-square test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: The mean dyspareunia score 4 weeks after the intervention in fennel and placebo groups was 0.69 ± 0.61, 0.83 ± 0.69, respectively (p= 0.430) and 8 weeks after the intervention was 0.50 ± 0.57 and 0.70 ± 0.65, respectively (p=0.211). The difference between the mean dyspareunia scores 4 and 8 weeks after delivery was statistically significant in the intervention group (p=0.011). This difference was not significant between the two groups.
Conclusion: Taking 500 mg fennel capsules twice a day from the second week after delivery has no effect on the prevention of postpartum dyspareunia. Further studies are suggested in this area.
