The Effect of Vitamin C Cream on Pregnancy Striae in Primiparous Women: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial |
|
| چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Background: Pregnancy striae, which are highly prevalent, cause significant cosmetic concerns for most women and pose challenges for prevention and treatment. The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effect of vitamin C cream on pregnancy striae in primiparous women.
Methods: This study was a randomized controlled clinical trial, which was conducted on 60 primiparous women with a gestational age of 18-20 weeks, who referred to Shahid Akbarabadi Hospital in Tehran from July 2022 to January 2023. The subjects were first recruited by continuous sampling, and then were assigned to intervention (n=30) and placebo (n=30) groups using a blocked randomization with the Sealed Envelope online software. The intervention group used the creams twice a day for 4 months on the skin of the abdomen, thighs, breasts, and buttocks, and the control group used the placebo cream in the same way as the intervention group. The severity and number of striae were assessed using the Atwal Striae Gravidarum Score. The assessments were performed before the intervention and also in the 4th, 8th, 12th and 16th weeks after the start of the intervention. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics of relative frequency, mean and standard deviation and inferential statistics of Chi-square and independent t test using SPSS software version 16. The significance level was set at (p < 0.05).
Results: There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of personal and midwifery characteristics (p>0.05). However, a significant difference was observed between the two groups regarding the incidence of pregnancy striae at all follow-up times. The use of Vitamin C cream had a significant effect in reducing the number and severity of pregnancy striae (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Considering the effectiveness of vitamin C in preventing pregnancy striae and its affordability, safety, and acceptability for pregnant women, it can be recommended for the prevention of pregnancy striae. |
