First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a device called MILTA, which uses light and magnetic fields, to reduce pain from perineal scars after childbirth. About 110 women with moderate to severe pain will receive either MILTA or a placebo treatment in two sessions. The goal is to see if this non-drug approach can help manage acute and chronic scar pain.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a non-drug option to ease pain from perineal scars after delivery.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 110 participants, so results may not apply widely. The treatment is new for this use and may not reduce pain better than placebo.
