Summary

This study tests whether getting women up and walking early after a C-section, plus drinking caffeinated Turkish coffee, can improve bowel function, reduce pain, and boost mood. Sixty women who had a planned C-section under spinal anesthesia will be randomly assigned to either early mobilization (at 4 hours) with caffeinated coffee, or later mobilization (at 6 hours) with decaf. The goal is to find a simple, drug-free way to help new mothers feel better faster.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
caffeinated Turkish coffee
What this could lead to
If it works, this simple routine could help new mothers recover more comfortably after C-section.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Caffeine may also cause jitters or sleep issues in some women.
