Considering the side effects caused by the use of chemical drugs, as well as mothers' anxiety and worry about the medicinal effects of drugs for themselves and their babies, today mothers' desire to use complementary medicine to relieve postpartum pain has increased. The present study was conducted with aim to compare the effect of Nigella sativa vs. menstrogel and mefenamic acid on postpartum pain.
Methods: This triple-blind clinical trial study was conducted in 2021-2022 on 60 multiparous women referring to Walie Asr maternity hospital in Birjand city who gave birth naturally and complained of postpartum pain. The women were randomly assigned to three groups of Nigella sativa, menstrogel, and mefenamic acid capsules and they took capsules every 6 hours for 24 hours. Pain intensity was measured before each dose and one hour later. Data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 22) and ANOVA, chi-square, paired t-test, post hoc Benferroni tests. P<0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The mean score of pain intensity before and after the intervention in the first round did not differ significantly in the three groups (p>0.05), while the results of the analysis of variance showed that the pain intensity has a significant difference in the three groups in the second round after the intervention (p=0.02), the third round after the intervention (p=0.002) and the fourth round after the intervention (p<0.05), and the intensity of pain was less in the Nigella sativa and menstrogel group than the mefenamic acid group, and the consumption of additional painkillers was also lower.
Conclusion: Nigella sativa and menstrogel can be used as an effective herbal medicine to reduce the intensity of postpartum pain.
