Exploratory Study of Patterns of Postpartum Maternal Sexuality

---

The perineal ruptur that occurs during labor can affect sexuality in postpartum mothers. About 80%
of women experience pain during intercourse, lack of vaginal lubrication, and loss of libido in the first 3
months postpartum. The need for sexuality is often the concern of the mother and family, so it is necessary
to carry out discussions during pregnancy based on the culture and beliefs of the family. The purpose of
this study was to explore sexuality in postpartum mothers at the Bancak Health Center, Semarang Regency.
A qualitative research design with a phenomenological approach was used in this study. Snowball sampling
was used in this study with 3 primiparous postpartum women participants 15-42 days with grade 1-2
perineal rupturd. There were 5 triangulations, three husbands, a doctor, and a midwife’s coordinator. Indepth interview instrument was used in this study. Test the data with the general approach of inductive
analysis, then the next step becomes deductive. Knowledge about sexuality, namely the relationship
between husband and wife after the postpartum period, aims to fulfill the spiritual needs of subsistence and
bring the relationship between husband and wife closer. However, mothers are reluctant to have sexual
intercourse during the postpartum period for fear of the stitches coming off and pain. Postpartum mothers'
readiness about sexuality, the husband's support, and the role of midwives in providing explanations about
sexuality after the postpartum period play an important role in overcoming problems of sexuality in
postpartum mothers.
