First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 34 times

Summary

This study is for first-time mothers having a vaginal birth. It aims to see if the length of time the baby's head is crowning (visible at the vaginal opening) is linked to a tear in a key pelvic muscle. Researchers will use ultrasound after birth to check for muscle injury and ask about symptoms like incontinence. The goal is to learn more about preventing long-term pelvic floor problems.
