Abstract
Background: The mode of delivery may have a significant effect on maternal outcomes after delivery. In this regard, we aimed to assess the reproductive and urinary system complaints of women who underwent C/S compared to vaginal delivery (V/D). Methods: In this comparative study, the women who received the C/S or V/D were invited to report their complications of the reproductive and urinary tract systems. Data were collected through the application of the direct interview technique with women. Purposive sampling was used for selecting the sample; in this study, we included 400 cases of C/S and V/D equally. Results: The study shows the large number of women’ ages ranged between (20-29). In this comparative study between C/S and V/D found in reproductive systems in both groups more than half had vaginal discharge and less than quarter had abdominal pain in both groups, there was significant between C/S and V/D with vaginal discharge in reproductive system. Also, in urinary tract system in both groups less than quarter had Pain or a burning sensation during urination, Lower abdominal, flank and Back pain. Conclusion: This study showed that the women in the C/S were more likely to have reproduction and urinary adverse outcomes compared to the V/D group. The number of complications was associated with having low socio-demographic status
