Abstract: (622 Views)
Background: Sexual function can be affected by hormonal changes, and recent studies indicate changes in the serum level of adipokines after childbirth. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between sexual function after birth, the type of delivery, and the serum concentration of omentin-1.
Materials and Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted in 89 women who were in the third trimester of pregnancy and met the inclusion criteria. The mother's serum omentin-1 concentration was measured in the first 24 hours after delivery, and its relationship with postpartum sexual function was evaluated according to the effect of delivery type.
Results: The results of the analysis showed that there was no significant relationship between sexual function and the type of delivery (P≥0.05). Also, serum levels of omentin-1 in the first 24 hours after vaginal delivery were higher than cesarean, but this relationship was not significant (P= 0.948). The results of Pearson's correlation test, between the serum level of oemantin-1 and sexual function in the vaginal delivery group showed that omentin-1 has a significant and inverse relationship with sexual function in the third trimester of pregnancy and the 12th week postpartum. (Respectively r= -0.317, p= 0.034 and r= -0.327, p= 0.028).
Conclusion: The results of the present study showed that the type of delivery had no significant relationship with sexual function. Also, the serum level of omentin-1 in the first 24 hours was higher in vaginal delivery than in cesarean. It can be concluded that the higher level of omentin-1 in mothers with vaginal delivery may act as a protective factor against metabolic disorders.
