delivery.3, 4 The muscle strength
of the pelvic floor returns to the antepartum value 6 — 10 weeks postpartum in most women.5, 6 However, UI symptoms
after delivery do not resolve in the long term in some women.7, 8 Studies have variously concluded that the prevalence
of UI changed9 or did not change within 6 months or 1 year postpartum.10, 11 A higher prevalence or incidence
of UI has been observed in women who had a
vaginal delivery than in women who underwent cesarean
delivery.10 — 18 In contrast, a recent study found that
vaginal delivery was not associated with postpartum UI.19 The long - term protective effect
of cesarean
delivery has not been determined.20 Validated and reliable questionnaires to evaluate UI, including severity and quality
of life, are needed for postpartum evaluation.21 However, comparisons
of UI severity and the effect on daily life between women who have had
vaginal and cesarean
deliveries are scarce.22
No association between
vaginal delivery and interference with daily life was observed
after 6 weeks, which supports a previous study.22 Additionally, the prevalence
of moderate or severe UI in the
vaginal delivery group was higher than that in the cesarean
delivery group at 3 — 5 days, perhaps because pelvic floor muscle strength is significantly reduced at 3 — 8 days
after vaginal delivery, but this is not the case
after cesarean
delivery.6
