The study examined the practice of adding six drops of pure lavender oil to bath water daily for 10 days following childbirth to reduce perineal discomfort. Mothers using the oil found it pleasant to use, and there were no side effects. The pattern of discomfort scores shows no statistical differences between groups. Those using lavender oil showed lower mean discomfort scores, particularly between days 3 and 5. Further studies might explore the effect of varying the amount of oil used or changing the mode of application.
