Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Women who have had their first cesarean section and speak Turkish will receive topical applications of St. John's Wort oil to the cesarean scar as a dressing. The study will track wound healing and pain using clinical wound checks and patient-reported pain measures over the postpartum follow-up period. The protocol focuses on a herbal, topical approach as an alternative to standard pharmacologic wound care and excludes those who decline or cannot communicate in Turkish. All treatment and follow-up take place at the Sakarya University site.
